I want to see this in the wild. Well, it's four faster, isn't it? It's not 21. You see, most blokes, you know, will be cruising at 21. You're on 21 here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on 21 on your bike. Where can you go from there? Where?

Tansy wrote: I've stealth camped on the Luce Line at the rest stop in Wayzata, at the parking lot in Lyndale, and at a picnic stop across the trail from the Alpaca farm about 5-6mi east of Watertown. Never had any problems, never saw anyone on the trail between 9pm-6am. Honestly, once you get past the Baker Park turnoff, the trail is generally dead. Only once did I camp in thick woods and out of sight - the trail is so quiet in the morning that it seems unnecessary to conceal yourself so carefully out there. You might get a few early joggers near Watertown, but other than than? Quiet as can be. Anywhere between Lyndale and a few miles out from Watertown should be easy stealth camping along the adjacent hose trail. Just don't set up before dusk, and pack up early. I ride the trail pretty often, and I've only ever seen bike-cops patrolling it once, in Plymouth. Doubt anyone wants to pay 'em to ride out into farmland.  ^Trail patrol is watching you^ That last line...
