Madison

Well we made it Madison, Wisconsin.

I finally get to catch up on some sleep and be able to enjoy the day. Last night i went out for some ice cream and it was delicious. They made it in the store and from all of Wisconsin's dairy. Fabulous ice cream, what made it even better was the store really didn't have a name, all that identified it was a picture of a giant cow...that's it.

Today is our day off and i am excited to search for some Wisconsin Cheese and other local dairy products. So i will keep you informed on how Wisconsin compares to Happy cows from California. And yesterday we finally made it to a decent sized bike shop. I was desperate to find a good bike shop for another pair of shorts and brand new tires since i have been "rollin' on stocks" since I got my bike. So i spoiled myself and got the best pair the shop offered, which definitely hurt the wallet, but oh well, at least they should last a long time, and I cant think of a better use of my money other than buying cheese and ice cream.


In terms of Bike and Build i am continually amazed at the hospitality given by our hosts. We are taken in and fed and all they ask for in return is a little of our time to tell our stories about our trip. I have no way of thanking them enough.

I hope everyone is enjoying the summer!
