Again, not really an exciting day. I rode from St. Cloud to Duluth – at the Western tip of the Great Lakes. Pretty much straight roads and there just wasn't any alternative route to make it more interesting.
The forest is beautiful though, especially now with fall coming.

In Duluth I visited Aerostitch to finally find out what size of Roadcrafter Classic I could possibly wear. Interesting enough, a short version, but with adjustments for longer arms and legs was the best fit. Short, since the torso is shorter as well. Will have to think about it, especially since the Klim Hardanger fits better without any adjustments, the downside is that it doesn't have a lined interior, which I would like to have, that's why I'm most interested in the Roadcrafter Classic.

Since Duluth didn't inspire me to stay, I moved on to Eau Claire in Wisconsin. Not that it's that much more interesting here, but it brought be about 220km South and I hope to avoid part of the thunderstorms that were in the forecast for Duluth.
I will stay here for two nights and take a break from riding for various reasons: relax my ears for a day, not using ear plugs, relax the rest of my body, and maybe avoid some of the rain. Plus I have an interview tomorrow and it's much easier when I'm not riding on that day.
On Friday I will start moving South East.
