[QUOTE="F2002, post: 2781, member: 50"] I have the first week in July off of work and would like to do my first Saddlesore 1000. I live in the Twin Cites area (Maple Grove specifically) and would prefer a loop so I would start and end roughly in the same spot. I am sticking to the Interstates so I am preparing to be bored for 18 or so hours. Time and cash won't let me do 1000 miles one way and come back after a stay in a hotel. Going 500 miles on I94 and turning around and doing the same stretch of road for the other 500 would really try my sanity. So far I have two loops. Loop one: Mpls, to Madison WI, to Bloomington IL, to Des Moines and north on I35 back to Mpls. MS Streets claims this is 1027 miles. Loop two: Mpls to, Des Moines then west to Omaha then trudge north on I29 to Fargo and from Fargo back to Mpls. MS Streets claims 995 mils so I may have to change my start/finish points to gain five more miles. So, are there any veterans or locals that have any preferred routes? Any help or recommendations are greatly appreciated. Brett [/QUOTE]
