New roads traveled today

Todays motorcycle ride took LoriAnn and I down new roads between Zumbrota and Wabasha.

Highway 60 between Zumbrota and Wabasha has always been a favorite of mine.  Recently, when looking at the map, I noticed that a highway travels along the Zumbrota river South of the favorite Hwy 60.  So today we set out to take a new route.

B-C-D was the targeted portion of today's journey.  The blast down the Highway from Home to Mazeppa (B) was fast an a bit chilly with a morning starting temperature at 54 degrees.  Mazeppa to Plainview (C) was a fun ride with lots of curves and scenic waterway.  From Plainview to the Hwy 61 along the river was fun.  Once on Hwy 61 we shot up Wabasha and crossed the Mississippi to Nelson.  At Nelson, we stopped for lunch at Beths Café and then struck out in land.  Up at Urne (E) I missed my turn but we found some new and fun roads that took us up to Hwy 10 and into Durand (F).  Hwy 10 into Prescott (G) is a pleasant and curving road.  At Prescott we took a break at the park on the Minnesota side.  Not wanting to run the freeway home, we zipped up north along two lanes to Hugo, and then we were quickly home.

Today was a fun run along some roads not traveled before.  Please comeback for more ride reports.

Beth's Twin Bluffs Café in Nelson Wisconsin

 I had the Honey Mustard Chicken Salad.   LoriAnn had the roast duck.  Both were extremely good.
