Today was neat day, and a very different change of pace. We have been riding these huge long days, well all of a sudden we get 116km. Not only did we have a shorter day, but we got to ride on a cute little bike path. It wasn't paved so we had to go a little bit slower but hey, we weren't in any rush, the day was short and wonderful. We're starting to hit less corn crops and more trees - everything is so green, and so lovely! We stopped in a little town called Mt. Horeb (so cute) at a coffee and chocolate cafe. It was really cute, then had all sorts of chocolate, I wanted to get some pretty bad BUT it would have melted in my bag, and I couldn't eat it all at once. Too bad. Anywho - the rest of the ride was great. We also had a media opportunity today - what happened was we all had to meet at some park and ride into camp together. It was cool and I think there's some stuff on the sea to sea web sight - but a little scary. Riding with 144 other people as a mass peleton - you have to be very, very careful! But it was very cool and the people of Madison Whisconsin were very inviting - it was great. We even got shuttles to the showers from people in the church, and if that isn't good enough - the man who drove us to the showers also went through the drove through to buy us all ice cream - now let me tell you something - no wait you already know - I am in love with ice cream. Thank you!!
