Portage, Wisconsin Jun 6, 2015 Finding no room at the inns near Madison the arctic explorers pushed north to Portage, WI. Excellent first day. 552 miles. No issues. Perfect weather.
Marengo, Illinois Jun 6, 2015 Chicago in the rear view mirror always puts a smile on my face! 75 degrees and sunny. A beautiful ride so far. 427 miles down 8,000 to go :-)
