Day #2-Northern Tier with John & Kathi

Osceola, WI to Cambridge, MN: 43.95 miles
Comments: Ride Time was 3 hours 37 minutes, average speed: 12.1


We checked out early from the River Valley Inn and prepared for our bike journey west towards Cambridge, MN for our 2nd night layover. The temperature today was about 20° less than that of Saturday and we had 30 miles of easy riding until the winds picked up and caused us to work a little harder for the last few miles of today’s ride. We reached Cambridge to find the city wrapped in construction. We detoured off the main road onto a service drive to reach our hotel for the night. After washing up, we walked to Culvers for an ice cream treat then back to the hotel to visit and discuss ordering a pizza for our evening meal. Kathi and John mapped their next layover destination, Milaca, choosing to travel light because of the holiday. Dennis and I then contacted Amy to allow her to decide if she wanted to pick us up in Cambridge or Milaca. The choice was made to meet up in Milaca which would allow us one more day of riding with the Johnsons. Looks like Kathi and John were stuck with us for one more day.
