Another Wonderful Ride (August 1, 2012)

Another great ride on another great rail-to-trail path.  Today's 72 mile ride to Waukesha, WI was primarily on the Glacial Drumlin Trail, which connects Madison to the Milwaukee area.

Two days of not having to deal with traffic makes for some wonderful biking.  Tomorrow we are heading to downtown Milwaukee, so will definitely be dealing with traffic.  Friday we will be taking the ferry across Lake Michigan to Muskegon, MI, then it will be on to Cleveland.

This part of the Midwest is quite beautiful ... rolling hills covered with wooded areas and corn fields.  Lots of lakes, and the sky has been an incredible shade of blue dotted with white clouds (as opposed to dark menacing clouds).  Smiles all around.

The adjacent picture is from yesterday's ride on the Badger State Trail, and shows me entering the 1200' tunnel.

The ride continues, but the end-point is looming in the back of my mind.
