Friday looks like it's gonna be a great day for a ride!
Highs in the mid 50s, low chance of liquid sunshine . . . . . this could be good!

Thanksgiving day is usually a decent day to ride. The roads are generally empty.

The kettles can be a start. Who knows where it will lead.

If you guys make a plan, post it up. I might be available for some sort of two wheeled adventure. I bet that makes your whole day now don't it?

M'kay -- here's what I'm thinkin . . .
Friday, 10 am, Red Door Cafe, south side of the square in East Troy . . .
http://www.reddoorcafe.net/
grab a cuppa something warm, then go diddybop through the lower kettle and, p'raps, pay our respects to Holy Hill . .. .
I'm not in love with this plan, but it's likely what I'll do lacking a better suggestion . . . . . ..

Sounds like a splendid plan. I think I may be able to do this, provided that I don't get derailed by some sort of negative karma that I am currntly unaware of. How's that for a committment?

Curious, where are these kettles of which you speak? Assume Eastern part of Cheesehead country but where, exactly? Thanks.

Tar -- Kettle Moraine --
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kettle_Moraine
there are two units in Wisconsin, north, and, wait for it, south.
I'm referring to the southern unit, near Palmyra, Wisconsin

So Bomber - you're plan is Red Door at 10am, which is what, an hour and a half from home (for me) then a couple hours of riding before heading home? Trying to see if this is feasible...
