Riding Luce

This past Wednesday I went on a nice relaxing long ride west of town on the Luce Line. The Luce Line is a section of Rails to Trails that runs west from Plymouth, MN for 63 miles all the way to the small town of Cosmos. It makes for a nice day in the saddle with stops for food and beverages along the way. The farm country it bisects also makes it a very picturesque ride. The trail is crossed by several gravel farm roads, some of which provide an opportunity for a change of scene and some hills. Some of these gravel roads loop back around to the trail. Enjoy ride :)
