Madison, WI to Woodstock, IL

We had a wonderful welcome at Crossroads Church in Madison over the weekend. They were very organized and the time with family meant so much to us.

This morning we left for Woodstock, IL. Our route followed rural road most all the way that paralleled I90. It was a beautiful ride and the miles went fast. We had a lunch stop at the Delavan CR. They put on a full lunch and it was great.

Brad Addink, the son of Sylvan on the tour, rode with a few of us as he was riding to work at his engineer job at Trek. Brad provided the Bontrager wheels that I am testing for him. He did some measurement and interviews in Madison with the ones that are participating in the test.

We are camping tonight at Woodstock High School. Woodstock is a community of about 20,000 way out northwest of Chicago metro. I has a great city square like a European town.

Julie and I skipped the supper and meetings tonight at camp. We met Trav and Megs at Meg's parents place on the Fox River in Mc Henry. We had a great short visit with them and returned to our tent for the night.

Love to all, P & J.
