Riding to North Freedom
Hi guys,
I'm planning on riding up to North Freedom, WI which is just West of Baraboo, WI this Sunday, Oct 13, 2013. The Mid-Continent Railway has color rides through the Baraboo River Valley. It's a 3 hour ride from Salem, WI. Figure a little over three hours with gas stops. Departure times for the 7 mile train ride are Sunday 11:40AM, 1:10PM, & 2:40PM. I'l like to leave the area here around 9AM to be able to catch that 1:10 departure. That way we can get home before the sun get low in the sky. I know the sun will be at our backs coming home but for oncoming traffic it will be in their eyes. I like to ride safe. I'm not much for expressways and avoid them. I plan on taking US 12. If you would like to come along let me know and we'll decide on a rally point.

Riding to North Freedom / Alternative
If North Freedom is too far or if that's too early on a Sunday morning I'm open to suggestions.

That sounds like a ride I'd enjoy. Count me in. I'm a half hour from Salem, so just send me a meeting point for 9 a.m. or I am fine with leaving earlier if you want to stop anywhere else.

Chelle Crane it would be nice to get together for a ride when weather permitting

Wonderful trip
I've been fortunate enough to have put quite a few miles on this summer traveling Wisconsin. It's been my experience that the best ride is always the next one. This ride we just took to North Freedom will be hard to top but somehow I know it will be.
I think we would have been fine leaving Baraboo but my GPS lady wanted me to turn right on Raisins Street. I don't like raisins in any shape or form including fruit, streets, or roads (at least thats my excuse). I'm also having some issues with roundabouts. I'm not sure why, after all from above they're shaped like cringle and I like cringle.
Wonderful pictures Greta. Thanks for sharing.

An old thread, but are any of you guys still meeting for rides? We got our Spyder this spring and are always looking for rides. We live in the big village of Arena, WI (about 30 miles west of Madison on hwy 14) I personally love riding west and northwest of here with all the hills and ridge tops. Would consider riding east though too. Anything in the works for this summer?

Check out the SOAR (Spyder owners and riders) group.
They do it right and although we have not been able to join many rides, we always hear great things.
Hope to see you on the roads, we ride your way several times each season.

Hi Rick,
Just saw your post. Be cool to ride this summer; I'm on IL/WS border. Weekends or weekdays or both work for you? I spend a lot of time at great lakes dragaway, south of Milwaukee. The rally in mid August in Johnson Creek is a cool time.
