Tonka Cycle - Hopkins, MN
They recently relocated to this great new location. The place looks terrific!
La Crosse, WI
La Crosse has been called "God's Country" for good reason. The place has some of the most spectaculars views of anywhere in the USA. The bluffs along the Mississippi river provide great a home to the American Eagle not to mention some great climbs for local rides.

Bike Ltd - La Crosse, WI
The first photo was shot in 1989 on my monthly visit to Bike LTD. In 1989 the New Orleans Saints held their training camp in La Crosse. Shawn (the owner then) and I worked out deal to have the coaching staff ride Giant bikes. The head coach that year? Mike Ditka - Da coach.

Budget Bicycle - Madison, WI
Perhaps the best overall bike shop in the USA. It was good to reconnect with the crew at Budget. The blue mini van in the first photo was mine from 1990 to 1993 while I worked for Giant. I logged just over 100k miles on that vehicle. Roger purchased the van in 1993 and still uses it daily.

Four time RAAM finisher Dave Hasse was happy to see the IZIP roll up into the parking lot. Dave and I go back more than 20 years.
Wheel & Sprocket - Hales Corners, WI
Had a great visit at perhaps the best all around bike shop in the USA. Chris Kegel was a very gracious host.
