Minnesota Roll – Jun 2022

Threw the two gravel bikes into the back of the Prius, steamed to Minneapolis and the High School graduation of Eileen’s second cousin Abby (daughter of Micheal Pocrnic), in Shakopee MN.

Next stop, Northfield to visit the Mom, hang out in the (new to us) Loon Liquor Company distillery.

Third stop – Joe and Jean’s, in Wayzata.  Rode the nearest bike path west, which ran to the south of Brown’s Bay (Lower Lake), thru Excelsior, and on to the Lake Auburn Campground area.  25 miles or so, mostly dirt. Pics are of Jean’s backyard.
