Minnesota and Wisconsin, eh? The weather has been perfect, the roads pleasant and the scenery nice, but PLEASE, the speed limits suck. After Montana with pretty much no speed limits and Wyoming and South Dakota with 80, we've had to deal with 45-55 here, killing me, cuz there seems to be a lot of cops around too.
Enjoyed our short stay here in Eagle River, nice and quiet this morning on the water, all the weekenders have departed. I figure it seem to be necessary if you live here to have at least 2 of the following: ATV, fishing boat, snow machine or party boat. The funny thing about the party boats here is that, of the 50 or so we watched go up or down the river last night, hardly any of them were partying. If this was Maine, they'd all be drunk!
We had a good dinner last night, I had a local Walleye fillet and DeeDee had Ahi tuna, came with salad, starch and veg, reasonable price. Off to Ontario today, hopefully.
The super. secret biker wave...
Ok, so along the west coast, pretty much most bikers had some sort of wave to acknowledge another biker. In Montana and South Dakota, most bikers felt they didn't need to wave or otherwise acknowledge one another. In Minnesota and Wisconsin, apparently every biker feels the need to do the "Super Secret Bike Club Wave" which is dropping your left arm as low as possible and pointing TWO fingers at the ground. And I mean every biker; at stop signs, parking lots, 5 lanes away on the highway. Some of them just about crash doing their secret salute. Of course up here they are all on Harleys, no helmets or riding gear, riding side by side. I haven't seen this many 'Ape Hangers' since Laconia in 68. Just tons of them over the weekend, probably won't see many now that it's Monday
