Bicycle Trip to Waterloo

 We decided to ride to Waterloo during the weekend of October 14-15, 2023. Probably not the best decision because that weekend was particularly cold, and days before were pretty wet. We gathered at Flanigan's at 7:30 AM, but we started riding the bicycles from home. 

We headed first to Waterworks and then headed north to the gazebo in front of Sugar Bottom Bicycle shop. We then headed our way on Mehaffey Bridge Rd. Decided to ride easy climbing the road to the corner of Mehaffey Bridge Rd and Sugar Bottom Rd.

Safely arrived to Solon's Timber dome. The next stop, was Ely's Casey's gas station. Time to fuel our body before lunch. 

We then headed our way to Cedar Rapids. We started riding on the Cedar Valley Trail which is very safe and flat.
