Yeah, maybe a little of that "special" will rub off on our bikes.

Fortunately they fixed it recently. But yeah, I-90 was bad for a while there.

My comments were only an opinion Chuck so best of luck whichever route you decide my friend !
I definitely did not want to go against your good advice Stan. But the rural route he was going to take would have been really tedious. I think I would actually suffer 30 miles of Twin Cities traffic vs 150+ miles of Wisconsin farm roads.

Well I made decent progress today. Cut my new wood floor and jack hammered up the concrete. Boy did that suck. But once I clear all the rubble out the pipe will be completely exposed. I'll know much more tomorrow.
