Nice today, after a very wet Wednesday. I was gone for 9 1/2 hours. I went up into Wisconsin, via the Galena area. I crossed the Wisconsin River in Boscobel, then headed back home, indirectly of course....lol. 409 miles.

Feeling jealous! Hope to get some long rides in the next couple of weeks before our "Tail" ride May 21st.
Had a great ride today. Rode along the Mississippi River, both sides, for quite a bit today. Finally back in a tank top. No long johns either!! Stopped at a HD dealership open house, watched a tug push some barges through a lock at dam 13. Got home in time to take the wife to dinner....not on the bike. Oh, it was in the mid 80's today. Winds were pretty strong, above 20 mph. It didn't bother me one bit.
I surpassed 111111 miles today....next milestone 123456 miles.
Got in a little afternoon wind therapy today. It hit the mid 50's and was sunny, but the winds were, once again, above 20mph, out of the west....which gave me a side wind for at least half the ride. The heavy winds could go away, any day now. I went down along the Illinois River. I got in 170 miles. Had it been either a bit warmer or a bit less windy, I probably would have gotten another 100 miles. The 50's felt a whole lot colder after having 80 just the other day.

All those ones remind me of a little Three Dog Night.
