Day 29 Pelican Rapids to Alexandria MN

After a warm send off from the folks of Trinity Lutheran Church in Pelican Rapids Minnesota, off we went in search of Alexandria Minnesota.

The first 35 miles where through rolling lake country of Otter Tail county. From Dalton we moved onto the superb Central Lake Bike Trail. This old railroad grade turned into a bike path is scenic, with tarmac as soft as a baby's behind. A welcome change from some of the bumpy county roads.



















We ended in Alexandria, home of Big Ole, one of the world's largest Vikings. The shop, Bike and Fitness company welcomed us with drinks and sandwiches.

Distance: 75 miles
Climb: 1280 ft

Overall Distance: 1872 miles
