    Hello bikeless in Wi! I'm with you!!

    I just moved to Utah from near the Madison WI area and those Wisonsin folks are certainly a different breed: four major food groups = beer, cheese, deer meat and brats! (bratwurst sausages cooked in beer!)

    My DH is a born and raised Wisconsin boy who grew up in west Milwaukee. He's built well, doesn't tend to put on weight and can eat a cow under the table at Culver's Ice Cream -- have you had that addictive stuff yet?

    I'm with you -- your 105 and my 150 lbs we'll lose riding our bikes! It is so hard, but worth it. My obesity has put me at greater risk for uterine cancer, breast cancer, stroke, diabetes and I don't need it!

    Good for you and your efforts! I totally support you! We all do!!
    There's nothing to stop traffic like a fat lady on a bike with a flourescent flag...

    Tuckerville,

    World's largest ketchup bottle? I've lived in and around St. Louis all my life and never heard of it. I'll have to check it out. If you like that stuff, there is a website and book called Roadside America. I'm not sure of the link, but you could google it. It's been awhile since I've used it, but there was a time when I was on the lookout for old muffler men. Spotted one in Pennsylvania. I think you would enjoy it. It has all of the odd and wacky places to visit in the US.

    It's actually a water tower for a ketchup plant.

    I think that book you mentioned...they did a PBS show based on it. That's where I first heard about the ketchup bottle.
