I am riding from my house in Mishawaka to Sryacuse, In. then around Lake Wawasee and back this May, it'll be a good 90 miles, if anyone is interested in riding along let me know. It can be a warm up for the big one! I'm currently rebuilding an old Schwinn World for the ride, Its just a bare frame for now, but by the end of Feb. I hope to get it done and tried out.
