miles ...... 2902
total miles
A day of rail trails, 3 different ones! Just outside Bay City
along the Saginaw River we picked up the Bay City Loop Trail. Had a bit of trouble
following it thru the city, gave us the opportunity to meet a friendly runner!
We peddled over many bridges. A bit later we rode 4 miles on the Harger Line Trail
north of Frankenmuth, a Bavarian tourist town. From Millington we found the Southern
Links Trailway which brought us to a campground on Otter Lake where we're spending
the night. Met Janet & Frank, a friendly couple from Detroit, who shared stories
with us. They're retired and also into bicycling. Fun to hear about the riding
they've done and all the trails here in Michigan.

Looking
across the Saginaw River from the Riverside Boardwalk in Bay City, MI. |
The
Boardwalk is part of the Bay City Loop Trail. Really made getting lost much more
pleasant. |

Haven't
seen such huge trees! Not only are they big, but there are so many different kinds.
