All points today! 265 miles completed. Bad news was NO BRAKES! Here’s what I used. 
All in all a great day! Bike ran flawless. A happy crew! 
A great lunch at Kersting’s. Did lots of work on bike tonight.
Great to see all the Milwaukee folks today! Thank you for coming down.
Tomorrow Looks good. 230 miles and ending in Anamosa at bike museum. Hope to see a lot of folks there!
We are having the time of our life. I don’t want it to stop. The cast of characters is wonderful. About 1/3 of the way complete.
Over and out.
PS – we fixed brakes.

I think you’ve captured the essence of riding these old bikes perfectly with that shoe picture. It can’t be easy stopping and I’m sure the pucker factor is probably eating that aerostich.
Be safe.

Great news that you got all your points yesterday! Glad you got your brakes fixed. Not sure that your “auxiliary” brakes would have held out another day!😉
Go #9 !!!
