Braving the Road

I have finally realized that I need to ride on the road, not on a trail. First of all, people on trails usually do not know the proper etiquette Secondly, the trails are no longer long enough for my riding. Thirdly, the trail I was going to ride on today turned into gravel. So.....

I rode on the road. At first it was a little scary, but I went early enough so there were not that many cars on the road. I ended up going around Minnetonka, Deephaven, Shorewood, etc and seeing a lot of Lake Minnetonka. There were a lot of rolling hills, which I hear the Madison course has a lot of. So, I spent most of my 3 hr 30 min ride on Hwy 5.
