Today is our rest day in Rochester, MN. As it turns out, Wisconsin, and the eastern part of Minnesota had some pretty big hills. The night we stayed in La Crosse, some of us took an additional ride to the top of Grandad Bluff to watch the sunset. Grandad Bluff was quite a climb, but it was well worth it. It sits 580 feet above the city of La Crosse, and provides an excellent view of the town, the Mississippi River, Iowa, and Minnesota. On the ride from La Crosse to Rochester I had my first flat of the trip. I made it almost 1900 miles though, so I think thats pretty good. Yesterday we got to tour parts of the Mayo Clinic, including some research labs, which was really cool. This weekend is Rochester Fest so most of the team made its way to the streets of Rochester for some good food and live music. Contrary to popular belief about Minnesota, I am yet to hear anyone say "Dontcha Know," which is really disappointing, but that hasn't stopped many of us from saying it while we are here.
