Day 17 - 23 June, Monday, St Croix River - Menomonie, WI (55 Miles)

     Today's ride was great!  Brian gave me a ride out of the Twin Citys so that I didn't have to contend with the morning traffic.  He dropped me off just over the St Croix River.  The ride in Wisconsin is very hilly...a lot of ups and downs.  Overalll I climbed 1700 ft and decended 1700 ft.  The weather was a little warm but not too bad...I think it got up to about 93 degrees.  The roads were pretty good...not much traffic so I ended up riding further than expected.  That could have also been because I had two days rest.

     Since it wasn't raining when I got into Menomonie, WI I decided to camp.  I am camping at the Twin Springs Campground.  This is a very nice campground just 2 miles outside of the city.  It is right on Lake Tainter.

     Tomorrow I plan to ride to Stanley, WI.  Hopefully I'm not wet when I wake up!
