I've been out nosing around the county a bit more, some great backroads, except they take you to the middle of nowhere and then turn to gravel. If you are coming out rt. 20 and have the time turn off onto stagecoach trail just before Lena, (there's an ethanol plant there at the beginning of the road) Nice scenic ride, better pavement than bouncing along on rt. 20. Stagecoach Rd. begins just before Lena, and ends in Galena.
a bit off topic here, i tried to reply to a p/m and not sure if it went thru, do i have to have a number of posts before i can do that? my homepage says i haven't sent anything.
