Saukville to Algoma preview

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006 4:31 pm

Yesterday I gave a little teaser about my upcoming bike ride from Saukville to Algoma, WI. The ride is going to be close to 100 miles, though I think it will end up just short.

From Saukville, I will make my way northeast and meet up with the Ozaukee Interurban Trail north of Port Washington. This is a very nice paved trail that follows the railroad tracks north to Sheboygan County. From there I will make my way over to the shores of Lake Michigan and follow that as closely as possible all the way up to Algoma.

I will only have two major cities to weave through – Sheboygan and Manitowoc, and the scenery should be very neat right along the lake. Once I get to the lake it should be a pretty flat ride.

After my adventure last weekend I had thought about shortening the ride a bit, but the more I think about it the more I want to just tackle the whole thing. I’ll be sure to take my camera along and snap some pictures. Check back next Tuesday, hopefully I will have posted something by then.

Tomorrow I have the day off work so I can ride up to Sheboygan and back. That will be my last big ride before Saturday.

Three Times Daily?

My friend Don (well, okay — my one and only reader) pointed out that “Three Times Daily” can refer to lots of things – eating, brushing teeth, praying, etc. To me it was more tongue-in-cheek humor given my past history of blogging (starts out strong for a couple days then drops off completely). I also think the phrase itself is phonetically and grammatically fun and interesting.

What do you do three times daily?
