Flatlands

Got on Amtrak in Shelby, MT.  Got off in Grand Forks, ND.  Then on to Fargo and Detroit Lakes, where I got to watch our boys choke in the final game against the Cleveland Cadavers.  :(

From there, stayed in the tiny town of Motley (the name says it), MN, then on to St. Cloud, and then Minneapolis.  Hotels downtown were > $300/night, so I stayed in the burb of Brooklyn Center, about 10 mi. N. of the city.  That made today's ride to Redwing (after 2 bakeries in Minneapolis) total at 83 miles.  Midway, through the ride, stopped for Sri Lankan food at the Curry Village in Rosemount.

Mild headwinds today wore me out.
