We started our ride in Bellwood at the Dunkin Donuts, we bought some bananas and use the rest room. The ride was going alone good until we got to Aurora and I heard La Tanya yell, A Bee stung her on the side of her face ( That hurt), Dan got the stinger out and she said it felt better. After lunch we were looking for the Fox River Trail, we started down a trail and Dan said this was not the right way so we turned around and rode up a very very steep hill. We rode around Aurora for about half hour only to find out we were going the right way in the first place. We got to St Charles , the hotel was about a mile and half from the path (Up a hill). The next morning we headed for Elgin, we rode down the hill to get to the path, only to find out that the path continued up the hill so off we went riding up another very steep hill. When we got to Elgin there was a large hill we rode down and when we got to the bottom there was a detour sign, we had two choices one go back up the hill two take another path and look for a route on the street to find the path, we chose to go through the detour we had to walk our bikes for a little ways. After going up another large hill and through another detour we found the Elgin branch of the trail, we headed back like homing pigeons. We rode 82 miles in 2 days.
