Fall Colors in Northern Minnesota
Snapped a few photos this afternoon while out on a ride with my wife. The photos were taken along the Paul Bunyan Trail between Backus and Hakensack.

The colors are great right now. I have ridden 300 miles this past week and have really enjoyed the views.

Fall colors on my ride today. This was taken overlooking the Red Deer River Valley.
(And me, fixing something on my bicycle.)

We won't get our colors down here for probably another 3-4 weeks. Yesterday I think it was in the 90's.
Beautiful pictures, looking forward to some of those scenes soon down here too.

I did the Cannon Valley Trail yesterday (Red Wing to Welch and back fo 18 miles) with the family and some friends and the colors are getting to be superb. Today, I took the day off and did about 27 miles of the Grand Rounds (West River Parkway going clockwise around Lakes Nokomis, Harriet, Calhoun, Lake of the Isles) and back through the Midtown Greenway in Minneapolis (I did a short detour to the University of MN campus - my alma mater). The colors are also superb.
The weather has been great the last 2 days (around 78F - 84F), but we'll be back in the 60's starting tomorrow.
Overall, an excellent 2 days of easy cycling with great scenery!

Gorgeous! I was just back home in Michigan visiting family last month and the change hadn't really started yet :-( Boy do i miss the seasons living here in Dallas. Nice shots! Looks like a great place to ride.
