'never again during the remainder of his journey to San Francisco would he equal or surpass this day's eighty-eight-mile effort. furthermore, never again on the trip would he encounter roads as fine as those he met in the Cornhusker state. riding through Wyoming and every state or territory thereafter, Nellis would long for the "excellent paths" of Nebraska.' - An American Cycling Odyssey, 1887

When and where is this bacon ride?
and what's the usual pace? Give us details, details!
Sounds like fun.
the 22mph pace was a joke, some may claim they ride that fast for hours but don't believe it.
as for where and when... every sunday at the mopac trail head (parking lot at 84th st). the departure time is usually around 6am. check the folksfromlincoln blog or cornbread's blog for more details a few days prior to know if a group is leaving or if the time has changed.
the route is the mopac to it's end in wabash and then gravel roads up to platte river st. park (a mtb or cross bike is the best choice). the restaurant in the park has a breakfast buffet from 830-1030, and the bacon is excellent.
