Little Falls to Albany
We’re returning home today! One last time of packing up the tent and rolling down country roads on bicycles with 200 wonderful friends. If it’s anything like all the years before, talk will already be about what part of the state the tour will be in next year.
2024 will mark the 50th year of this event. Me thinks it will be one not to be missed.
How will it feel to be back in my bed again tonight? I know I will be looking forward to finding out.

Albany to Alexandria
Okay, so this morning is when it feels a little tender to climb back on the bike and sit. Like so many things in life, you get used to it soon enough and pedal away without a care in the world. It’s Juneteenth today!
We ride some on the Lake Wobegon Regional Trail today. I wonder how many new friends I will have made by the end of the day. The biking is great but it’s the people on the trip that make it so dang much fun that I keep returning year after year.
I sure hope the wildfire smoke isn’t as bad today as it was at the end of last week.

Albany Loop
We leave Albany this morning and ride a loop that reaches St. Cloud and then returns to Albany. It is a bonus that we don’t need to take down our tents and pack everything up before we ride. A second night of sleeping in Albany might mean I will be used to all the sounds of the area and snooze solidly straight through this time. Not likely.
My butt won’t feel sore until I get back on the seat tomorrow morning.
