Road Rides in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

[Irulan]

This is such an amazing ride, that one person's story of a bad experience should not deter you from going. You can have a bad experience with teenagers in the local park in your own town, anywhere in America, any day of the week. There is nothing wrong with the towns along the trail. In fact, the trail is SO rural, that there's hardly any towns along the trail anyway. From Cataldo to Plummer - 42 miles - I think we crossed 2 paved roads total.

you are right in that... so did you get ice cream in Harrison? That should be the main reason for the ride!

No, we didn't get any ice cream there and don't mention to Jeff that there WAS good ice cream to be had there or he'll be terribly disappointed. We ate lunch and then got back on the road.

We *did* have ice cream in Plummer at the western terminus of the trail (mid-point of the ride for us, since we had to ride back to Cataldo) however. After all, a ride without ice cream at some point in the ride is hardly worth doing at all! Long rides with Jeff are almost guaranteed to include ice cream....

Great pictures, Susan!!

I hope to be adding some of my own in a few months. We're doing this ride with about 5 other couples in August. We're riding from Coeur d'Alene to Plummer, staying overnight in a hotel, and riding back the next day. I'm really looking forward to it!

Wow, great pictures Susan . . . thanks for sharing them! It sounds like you and Jeff had a wonderful ride! I will definitely place it back on my list of rides to do!
