This is my local course. Geno has the course record of 61. Note that for the 2,000 holes he averaged 71.8 for each 18.
I haven't checked lately but he's around a +4.

High 60's today, decided there was nothing that couldn't wait another day. Went down the Wisconsin side of the Mississippi for a while, with a side trip up the St. Croix, then back up the MN side. Shoulda just turned around and gone back up in WI, way better scenery and nobody was driving slow like they always do in MN, but it was shorter that way and the lower back and right shoulder were starting to ache. Last 30 or so miles in MN was against a stiff headwind, lotta pressure without a wimpshield; wind was loud even at 20 mph . Bikes everywhere, musta had a bike in front of me over half the ride. Maybe that's why the cagers were driving so well, seldom got out of sight of a bike there were so many.
Muddy Waters restaurant in Prescott, WI, was filling up the bike lot. Ate there last week with the kids, but just stopped for a pic this time. There were dozens of bikes parked in front of the restaurants and bars on the main drag through Prescott.
Nauti Hawg was so crowded I didn't get the drink I'd planned on. This is just a few of the bikes parked on the side, way more in front. Didn't take a pic that direction, lotta folks woulda been in it, some might not have liked it. That pickup sure ate enough salt, but I don't think that 66 or 67 GTX ever tasted any.
Nauti's boat parking, only had one river visitor today.
I shoulda stopped and taken some pics along the St, Croix river, especially the 20 mph winding section; had a big truck pulling a trailer in front of me, didn't get to enjoy it heading north, but followed a couple other bikes going back, went quick enough to have fun, and kept me from acting silly... those Avon tires are so sticky.

Afternoon mens.
Was checking out a site showing some of the best motorcycle roads in Pennsylvania.
I never realized there was so much good riding to be had there.
Those Poconos look interesting, I hope to make it there next summer.

yeah.... been up since around 10. Gonna make for along night. On a positive note, looks like I got a set of saddlebags for the bike. Selling the old ones was definently not one of my better ideas.
