Lake Michigan Ride—Day 16

Arrive Green Bay via Mercedes van.
Zero biking miles.

Morning logistics a bit chaotic,
No... just unusual.

Bulk of storm came through last night. 
This morning heavy grey, overcast, not raining.
Four guys, Gerry, Stan, Eric, Gene,
Decided to ride.

Ken prepared eight remaining bikes,
For packing in back of Ford pickup vehicle.
Removed front wheels, pedals, all bags,
Sandwiched cardboard between bikes.
John was helper dude.

Ken & Nancy drove vehicle with bikes.
Women plus John,
All gear, food containers,
Rode in
CLASSY Mercedes, Bucky’s shuttle.
Comfy seats around edge of back,
Bar in corner, quiet,
AC and music.

WaHoo !
What a way to travel out of rain.
Bucky wanted to show us Lambeau Field
Home of Green Bay Packers.
That stadium holds 81,414 fans ... all at once!
Gift store unbelievable collection of everything
Green Bay, even Barbie dolls.

Fun, unexpected way to get here.
Four riders have come in,
Varying degrees of wet,
'Cause rain did start again.
Found great bike store a ways from motel.
Like going to candy store.

Most unusual day.
Lots of friendly connecting,
Calm time for me.

Leaders made good arrangements,
Allowed individual choice.

Sending hugs to each of you,
Lin
