NOT A DROP!

 Just two riders showed up at Casey's for our Wednesday night ride.  Amazingly, the rain, at least in Waukon, stopped right at 5 O'clock!  Only Richard in the Slingshot and Bob on his trike were ready to ride.  Not knowing for sure where the showers may be next, we both decided that this would not be the first time we got our butts wet, so we took off toward the clearing skies to the east.

This meant taking the Elon Road east to the Lansing/Harpers Road and turning north back into Lansing.  Actually most of the Elon Road was dry and there were also dry areas on the L/H Road.

We cruised through Lansing and across the bridge into Wisconsin still dry.  We took HWY 35 south into Lynxville and then turned back east on CR E.  Following E up to HWY 27, we turned south passing through Seneca.  We continued on 27 up to CR N and then turned west and cruised down the hill enjoying the "whoopty-doops" (up and down rollercoaster like hills.  We arrived back on HWY 35 and turned south toward Prairie du Chien.  Taking CR K along the river we passed through PDC and onto HWY 18 west.  Across the bridge we went and into Marquette where we picked up HWY 76 and headed north.

We followed 76 on into Waukon to the Uptown remaining perfectly dry.  What started out to be a "chancy" venture turned out to be a great ride enhanced by getting to view the changing trees.  I had 97 miles on the trike when I got home.

AFTER OUR "DRY" RIDE

With daylight getting shorter for the rest of our Wednesday night rides, we will not be stopping for a break, since the rides will be short enough anyway.

NEXT WEDNESDAY

The plan will be to head over to the Ridgeway area.

CALL ME A CHICKEN

Just a reminder!  Our Run, Chicken, Run Run to Rockton is taking place this Sunday departing from Casey's at 10:15 AM.  Note the slight time change.  (Bob has to deliver the scriptures at Zion Church on Sunday, so it may be 10:15 before he can get to Casey's)

Again, if you want chicken, you will need reservations.  If you want Bob to make the reservations, then let him know by Saturday afternoon.  The weather looks to be excellent, so we should get a good ride and be able to see the turning trees.  Also a stop at the Sunrise Orchards is on the agenda for the way back.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
