560 miles from Sault Ste Marie MI to Rochester MN

The critics have spoken and would like a little less creativity in the blog so I'll keep it more factual.
We got up early, quick breakfast then load the bikes. It was already hot and humid and threatening so we started with rain suits and around 8am it started raining. Not too bad but drippy until mid-day. Fast interstates all day with really heavy fast traffic in Green Bay. West on Rt 28 then south on rt35 to Green Bay. Southwest to Appleton, Oshkosh, Ripon and then Rt82 to the interstate (90) in Mauston. Then pretty much all day on the interstate until we got to Rochester MN. John is definitely the pokey one so with coaching has picked up the pace. The old girl can do it, but may need some oil infusions to keep it up. The "peg stretches" every 15 minutes are still working so the old hip is doing great. We got a comfy Comfort Inn suite and found a hopping restaurant just down the street. No pictures today. Another long fast one today but should end up in Badlands tonight.
