Farm ruins along the wayDetails & Weather: Nice sunny day. Brought the bike for the first time to help increase IAT mileage since I'm self-shuttling. Dropped the bike off where I left off, found a good parking spot, hiked and rode the bike back. Everything was working perfectly until the bike chain broke about 500m from the car. Good timing. Tried to get the chain working again, got it all connected but didn't really trust it anymore so I gave up on the bike. Did some more hiking but only ended up doing 3 hours. Started at 7:15 a.m. and finished around 10:00 a.m. Hiked 6.5 miles, biked 2.5 miles.
Wildlife: Swallows; Tweety birds, Red Wing Black Birds; Black Birds; again no Crows; Sandhill cranes; geese; pair of Mallards; Cows; Horses; a Border Collie; a Lab mix; and a Chipmunk.
Notes: The bike shuttling works, getting it fixed now, will keep doing that for sure as long as the trail is on these roads. Helps to not forget: Running shoes; map; camera; notebook. Abo Dude would be disappointed. Also helps to having a bike in good condition, but I guess the chain is allowed to break after 20 years.
