This may look like a google map, but it’s just a screen shot of one, sort of. It shows the route of yesterday’s bike ride and all the places where I stopped to take photos. The temperature was in the 90s with a light wind out of the northeast (the direction where I was headed). Mileage total was about 43. I’m not sure exactly, because the bike is still on the car.

We’re back home now. I ended my bike ride in a drought-stricken area. An Amish farmer I talked to said it had never been that dry before. On our way home we drove through heavy rains in Indiana and southern Michigan — almost too heavy to be driving in — but at home it’s dry, too. We need rain.

I haven’t yet figured out how to take the data from my Sony GPS-CS1KA and move it to my regular googlemaps that I can post on the web, but the log files it produces seem to use standard GPS formats, so I have hope that it can be done.

This was taken within about 10 miles of my finish. The finish was at a good history site, but I’ll have to leave that for later.
