I don&#8217;t know what the people here did for the Fourth of July this year, but when I rode through on July 8 <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2011/07/30/5307/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This building is the former office of the Henning Advocate, I was told.   It could very well have been the office back in my high school days, but I don&#8217;t remember ever having a reason to know where it was located.  Even less do I know whether this was the location of the Alliance Advocate <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2011/07/19/allowed-it-to-withe/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Last night I pulled out the copy of the Citizen&#8217;s Advocate that I bought for a dollar when I stopped at the newspaper office in Henning on last Friday&#8217;s bike ride.   It was interesting to see the surnames that had been familiar to me during high school days,  and to wonder whether the people <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2011/07/13/unsavory-sheet/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What does Harmon Killebrew have to do with Black Hawk and settlement-era history, you may ask.    Not much, really.   But I&#8217;d like to post something as a memorial, and while I have other blogs where I could do that, it was baseball that got me started on bicycling to Black Hawk sites, as I once <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2011/05/18/memories-of-harmon-killebrew/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t like carrying things on my back. It&#8217;s too much work and my back doesn&#8217;t like it very well. Carrying things in bicycle panniers is much better. This photo shows another way to carry your gear. It was taken December 27, 1971.

		<description><![CDATA[The last couple of weeks have not included much bicycling, much less blogging. They did include an afternoon fishing on the above lake, though. Myra thinks I should take her fishing more often. The problem is, I don&#8217;t have patience for fishing like I did when I was younger. But patience isn&#8217;t required on this <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2009/09/16/largemouth-bass-and-threshers/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a nice-looking Minnesota dairy barn on the other side of the road from my resting place at Oaks Lake. But as I got closer, I saw that it was a former dairy barn. The place looked like it may have been an active farmstead recently, but no longer. Four miles north there was <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2009/07/28/little-homestead-on-a-tiny-island/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(More from Tuesday, July 7) In some ways my ride through southern Minnesota was like going back home, but as I was riding I confess I was thinking how I missed riding in some of the states closer to home, where the roads aren&#8217;t always as straight, wide, and in as good repair, and where <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2009/07/27/oaks-lake/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Brewster MN I was hoping for something a little better than gas station food, but that&#8217;s all I got. I ate it at the town park, then took a 20-minute nap on this picnic table bench. Brewster isn&#8217;t laid out square with the world. Instead, it&#8217;s aligned at right angles to the railroad.
