Stuff that happened:
Gerard rode like the wind today. After the second sag he and I caught up with Steve Bennett who joined us. The three of us worked hard together and ended up making it in to the hotel first today. We showered, went to a nice bike shop, had lunch at a Mexican restaurant that was very slow serving us.

Fond du Lac had a sidewalk sale going on in their downtown where we stayed. It made the area a bit more festive for our arrival. The streets were all closed to traffic. I then took a walking tour of the Northern end of Main Street. This led to a very beautiful lakeside park on a fantastic day. I had fun talking to people at home on the cell and taking some pictures of the area. See my slide show for more if you’d like.

Thanks again for all the nice comments. It is fun to know that my family and friends are peeking at this and staying in touch. I appreciate it. Even though the blog allows anonymous comments, thanks for letting me know who is who.
