Day 6

Today we headed back onto the roads for real. We even had a guest with us! Craig Manthe from here in Eau Claire met up with us today for the first three hours of the ride. It seems so strange riding with four people. John and Chad and I are so used to riding alone together, that its weird to have someone to talk to when your sucking wind in the draft. I think I could get used to it!

It's fair to say the week is starting to catch up with our legs and the rest of our bodies. We did just shy of 4.5 hours today, and if I hadn't chowed a plate of pasta this morning after breakfast, I think I would have been in for a rough afternoon! Speaking of a rough afternoon, John was the victim of our second flat of the week. It got him less than a mile away from home. Shit happens I guess.













John has the camera right now with the pics on it from today, so be sure to check out coffee and bikes for all of the other pics. So just to break up the blog I stuck this one in. I believe it is from the Sheboygen race.

We headed out south of town and crossed one or two the ridges south of hwy 10 before heading back up north. We rode back close to town with Craig, and then headed west for 45 min and looped back home.
