Previously I've set up a new blog for each trip that I do, but Andy convinced me to just have one blog and update my various trips onto it, so here we go. 

T-minus ~18 hours until we depart for our bike trip south tomorrow. My legs are still a bit weary from Grandma's, but I'm pretty excited to start out on another adventure. This time it will be Greg, Andy, and my Dad. The plan is to head south up the MN River Valley until Mankato, then down the Cannon River Corridor to Welch, before bending back North again through Hastings and back to our turf on the Mississippi River. Thank goodness for rivers I guess. One of the few natural features we've tried to at least kind of, sort of kept strung together as a singular natural feature. Even if we are dumping a bunch of chemicals in there from lawns, farm fields, etc. 

It's supposed to be hot as heck, but no rain. Fairly standard summer around here the last few years. Not too bad for biking with a breeze, but perhaps a little hot for camping. We'll see.
