TEAM Traverski does the MS 150: June 9-10-11

What is the MS 150 ?

It is the Nation Multiple Sclerosis Society's fund raising event in Minnesota, that is a bike ride from Duluth to White Bear Lake.    Actually, MSS has 3 fundraising bike rides in MN, and the MS150 is the medium length ride of 150 miles over 2 days.

Anyone want to join us ?

The ride starts by following the Willard Munger trail, and it already has over 1500 riders signed up.   

75 miles a day might sound like a lot, but they have 5 stops along the way, each day. 

And at 12 miles per hour, that is only a little over 6 hours, but with all those breaks it will not feel like 6 hours.

E-Bikes are allowed: Electric-assist or pedal-assist bicycles are allowed as long as they meet the requirements under Minnesota Statute 169.011, Subdivision 27
(https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/169.011) ... then look for "Subd. 27.Electric-assisted bicycle."

On Friday Tim and I are going to drive up to the finish line in White Bear Lake, and then get shuttled up to the start line. And we are camping both nights.
