Having gone on both of these rides last year, or, *part* of the Riv Ride anyway, I can attest to the great routes Jim comes up with and am looking forward to riding the Midwest Rally again this year. The Northern Wisconsin trip is currently a hopeful maybe. But no matter what the route, the bikes, the weather, there's one thing for certain: The Will Be Bacon.
