Day Two Wraps Up in Princeton IL

Day two is done with another 490 miles complete. We started a bit late but had a great breakfast and a look around the Harley dealer. Don't worry Hun - no new bike (yet). It was almost 11 by the time we got started and we quickly hit Cleveland, Toledo, Gary, Indiana, and Short Bend. Lots of great, memorable scenery of small-town farming communities. Then we hit Chicago suburbs. We're avoiding Chicago this year but we couldn't avoid the traffic. Once we cleared it though, the rest of the ride was great. No rain, lots of sun (maybe to much), and no problems. We met a bunch of folks also traveling to Sturgis, and plan to hook up with them again when we get there. We will be joined in the morning at the hotel by Steve and Doug, brothers who we rode with last year. With an earlier start and a shorter ride we should get to Nebraska at a much earlier time than today. All is well. More tomorrow.

Love to Ann, Jules, and Cam.
