Nice 90 mile ride to Illinois and back. There was one point somewhere in the middle of the ride that had a higher elevation than the rest of the trail, and long, slowly-sloping trail to get there. The redeeming part of the trail was the super-nice paving that went further out of Madison than any other local rail trail (I think). The other big feature on the trail was a 1200 foot long tunnel (complete with curve in the middle of it). It was pitch dark inside the tunnel, and the one blinky headlight we had with us didn't do much to help us see where we were going. Pigeons have never been so creepy. We had some good food and a fair amount of water, but it was a pretty warm day, and Ali was beat by the time we hit pavement on the way back.
