The Great Lakes Tour 2010

This year, our American tour is planned around the Great Lakes.  We’ll pick up the bikes from our good friends at Cycles Plus in Elkhorn WI and travel clockwise staring with the western shore of Lake Michigan, the north of Lake Superior (which will take us into Canada), continuing along the northern edge of Lake Huron, then southwards to Niagara Falls (a must see), then the southern shore of  Lake Erie, and cross country to the south east shore of Lake Michigan before returning to Elkhorn.  We won’t go around Lake Ontario, but we’ll see it, of course, at Niagara Falls.
