On days I work I usually ride late in the day and so I tend to stay off the roads.... My favorite "out and back" is to ride the local rail trail 30 miles round trip to a neighboring town. The trial is mostly crushed limestone with grades less than 5%.

On my days off I take to the roads whenever possible.... My favorite ride is through the country side to a small town called Stone City. Some of the steepest hills in Eastern Iowa. That loop is about 35 miles.

Here is how Grant Wood painted the town.....
