Day 24: Re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-LAX

La Crosse (also known as LAX), WI

Stats!
Miles biked today: 7.3
Total miles biked on trip: 849.6
Max speed: 22.0

Not much to report today. It was an R&R day in La Crosse. We went out for breakfast and did the puzzles, and then did a bit of shopping. La Crosse downtown is really cute. Dean got his hair did.

After that we went to go see X-Men a few miles away. It was great! We both recommend it.

Dean did some searching online about La Crosse-specific events. He found that on Wednesdays, a local bar (that offers over 400 beers) gives a free beer to bicyclists who bike to the pub. I wasn't feeling great (we had some questionable Midwestern Chinese food last night) but it was a deal we couldn't ignore. Turns out, that deal wasn't on, but we were not to be deterred! We tried a few of the crazy beers on the menu, and then started taking crazy photos.

Should be back on the bikes tomorrow, assuming I've recovered from the Szechuan Cheesehead Fever.

  1. Were glad you got some rest and are seeing a little bit of the towns you are staying in. Steer clear of the 400 beers.

  2. 400 bottles of beer on the wall, 400 bottles of beer. Take one down, pass it around, 399 bottles of beer on the wall! Sounds like my kind of establishment. :) Hope the midwestern szechuan doesn't hold you back today. Keep truckin!!

  3. I did my undergrad in LAX! I am guessing it was the Bodega that had the beer special?
