Okay, the time is near.  I have plotted out a biking route from my house in Washington to my sons house in Glen Ellyn, Il.  It is about 140 miles and will be over 2 days. Day one takes me from home north to Ottawa Il.  Route 89 to Magnolia about 32 miles.  I will follow back roads to Rt. 18 into Streator which is another 20 miles.  From there it will be Rt. 23 into Ottawa which connects with Rt 71.  This 20 mile stretch which will end my first days journey.   Now the real decision.  Do I ride home in the SAG or stay the night at a hotel and set out the next morning?  At this time I have not decided but with the Covid still very prevalent, the safest option would be to come back the next day to finish the ride.  Day two starts on route 71 but I need to take a diversion before I hit route 47.  There is a significant construction zone that I do not feel comfortable riding through and I have found a path that can circumvent that obstruction.  Eventually I will return to 71 until I hit Wolfs Crossing Rd.  I follow that to Eola road north.  My next turn will be a right turn at Ferry road.   I continue until I hit Naperville road.  A right at S Blanchard will take me into Glen Ellyn where I will zig/zag to finally arrive at the my sons house.  Day two ride will be near 70 miles and that will determine if I have recovered and trained enough to do more distance riding.  Later.
