Great fall color ride to the Whitecap Mountain resort and the Porcupine mtns in the U.P. As is normal in this part of the country for the end of September in the upper midwest, Mother Nature was threatening but the rain held off until the last bit of 2 legs of the trip. When you are headed into the stable the rain doesn't seem quite so bad.

Sandwiched between the cruisers I couldn't even get her into high gear, the bike guys The Bike.

Lake of the Clouds...the midwest equivalent of a Rocky Mountain high.

Perfect! A great dinner gathering after a great ride!
Put this one on your list for next year if you are within a days ride of Lake Superior.
