A Mini-Vacation at Johnson’s B&B

Dorchester to Mondeaux, WI: 63.08 miles
Comments: Ride Time was 4 hours 23 minutes, average speed: 14.3

After spending the night at the Johnson’s B&B in Dorchester, WI, we awoke Saturday morning rested and ready to ride, however, the weather did not cooperated. The predicted rains moved into the Dorchester area and stayed until Noon. We waited out the rain by playing Spinner, Toss the Pigs and Buck Euchre with John and Kathi—much fun! Following our game time, the sun came out and we readied our bikes for a 60-mile ride towards Modeaux.


The route was beautiful with many rolling hills. We seemed to be really rolling along despite the mid-80-degree temperatures. We reached Mondeaux around 2:00 p.m. dry, hot and hungry. The four of us split a pizza at the cabin-style restaurant located near the Mondeaux dam—it was delicious! Following a short rest here, we got on the bikes to pedal back to Dorchester.


Back at the Johnson’s we shared a wonderful meal of grilled chicken, twice-baked potatoes and salads. This was a very enjoyable mini-vacation for Dennis and me. We always enjoy visiting with our biking friends in Dorchester.
