Burlington Wisconsin Scenic Cruise - Remote: Bristol Woods Park, WI at 9:00 AM~ Dennis Miller
 
The forecast for this Saturday looks great: sunny, mid 70s and light winds.

Remote Start: Bristol Woods County Park.  Take I-94 North.  A few miles past the Wisconsin border, take Exit #347 Hwy 165/Cty Q.  Turn left (west) at the end of the exit ramp and go west 2.5 miles on Qty Q.  Turn right (north) at Cty MB and go 0.5 miles.  Turn left into the park entrance. Park at the Pringle Nature Center - follow the park road about 1/4 mile past the picnic shelter at the top of the hill.  Allow an hour from Evanston.

There will be some rolling hills and maybe a few not so rolling.  We will keep to the Classic Fast Pace of 15 to 17 mph. There will be two straight stretches of 4-5 miles ending in dead ends where faster riders can go at their own pace.  Most of the route is on scenic rural roads.  Lunch will be at a lovely cafe in Burlington - The Coffee House at Chestnut & Pine.  We will also stop for root beer floats at the Dairy Queen in Silver Lake.

If the weather forecast changes I'll post a notice by 7:15 AM.
