good roads and a tailwind. We went through Brookings, SD which had a
nice bike shop but better yet it's home to SD State University and
good ice cream. SDSU is like MSU, an agricultural school and makes
it's own ice cream. Riding through campus the building have names
such as corn science or dairy science.
At mile 61 we crossed into Minnesota. Yeah, another state down! Now I
know I'm in the Midwest. The road changed from chipseal to concrete.
Speaking of which, what determines the Midwest? Is it the roads, the
type of crops from wheat and hay to corn and soy beans or perhaps east
of a certain point or river. These are things we discuss on this
ride. And why is a large area of the country called Midwest when it's
closer to the US Mideast?
Anyways we arrived at Tyler, MN, another small town that is getting
smaller each year. ATT doesn't have any service in much of this area
so that is why this blog is a couple days late.
