Stage 19 - Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough

A good group ride today with Barry, Russ, John G. and Phil.

It was also the finest morning you could ask for when heading out on a bike. Cool, calm and sunny. Even a Washington County Sheriff stopping us for failing to stop at a stop sign wasn't going to ruin our ride. And although I could rant on about how the Sheriff could have better used his time chasing down the heroin dealers who are killing our children instead of hassling some cyclists, I won't.

From Germantown we headed north to the southern outskirts of Saukville, did a little loop and headed to Historic Downtown Cedarburg for some coffee. On the way we passed the last surviving covered bridge in the State of Wisconsin. Not that any of us noticed.

The coffee was delicious and on the cruise home we had a chance to discuss Phil's new Harley and his impending wedding. I hope the Harley survives.

This evening a few of us headed to Milwaukee for the highlight of the Superweek Cycling Series; The Great Downer Avenue Bike Race. Our team was well represented with three guys in the Pro race. Here's a shot that I took of team leader John looking fast;
