Stopping along the Mississippi at the Stone Arch Bridge

71.2 miles.


two thirds done

100 kilometers

Halfway

By Lake Harriet in Minneapolis,  I'm at fifty miles.  It's later than I like, but there's still enough time for another fifty miles.


Final rest stop

This is the last rest stop of the St. Paul Classic tour.  For the remaining sixty miles I'm on my own. 


Third rest stop

More than a third of the way through my hundred mile ride, and still on the St. Paul Classic part of it.  My speed is not what I had hoped.  Something in the air is making me wheeze a bit,  and it's slowing me down. 


St. Paul Classic second rest stop

First rest stop

Music and snacks where the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers merge.


St Paul Classic bike tour

I'm riding with the St. Paul Classic for the first part of my hundred mile ride today.
