Apparently Richard and/or Melodye  recorded the ride that took place on Wednesday.  It's on Facebook, but I will try to move it to here.

Wednesday night Riders September 20. Just a few showed up Mike our only two wheeler, Mel and Richard in the slingshot three wheeler, Irv and Howard in the
Vet. Mike took the lead when it was clear we were all there was. He took us north on 76 down over the Iowa river the road construction had been completed. Did not miss the stop lights and traffic was light. Up past Dorchester and Eitzen to Stylling Road or Highway27 a smooth black top in to Spring Grove. Taken highway 44 through town to Houston County Rd 4 taking us through Black Hammer on the ridge. Dropping down in to the valley and past the town of Yucatan bring us back to 76. We pulled into the town of Houston stopping at BP station on the edge of town. Taking a short break there and the only photos of the trip. When we left town we headed east on Houston Bluff County Scenic Bywy or highway 16. shared it with the farmers working on getting crops out of the fields. Taking us to the town of Hokah with a few turns we picked up highway 18 taking us up over a short ridge dropping us into Brownsville. Where we picked up highway 26 and the Mississippi River road. It was a nice ride south to the town of New Albin. on the south end of town Mike jumped off at home. Irv and I took the Iowa river drive to the Lycurgus Rd back south and west. Puting us beside the Lycurgus church and highway 9. Taking it back to town and a bite to eat for our time. Did not record the miles but had nice time and we got back just as the sun left our sky. Looking forward to next trip out!




Thanks to the Protsman's for the write up and thanks to Mike for leading.
