Riding the T-word... the GS Giant's Gypsy Tour from the south.

Oh hell... it's called the TWAT. Get over it!
Thanks to the generosity of fellow GS Giant Chad Berger of Lone Wolf Expeditions, we have access to the route info of the Trans Wisconsin Adventure Trail.
To suit the needs of the Gypsy Tour, Chad helped make a few modifications to the route so that it started at an affordable/accessible campground (Pikes Peak Park in Iowa) and ended with the rest of the Gypsy Tours at the St. Croix Campground in MN.
This is a 2-day ride like the rest of them... meet up on Sunday evening and ride Monday and Tuesday. The Monday night stopover is The Black River Lodge and Resort, on Lake Arbutus near Black River, Wi. Contact them for reservations.
There are two GPS files attached to this post, one in Garmin format and the other in GPX. These have been prepared using the latest version of Garmin City Navigator, so if you don't have that, please do not recalculate the route.
Here's a map (rough), and please do not use the routes available via this service, as there are some incompatibilities due to the Google base map. If you zoom in far enough, you'll see the problem.

There's a lot of chatter in the GS Giants Facebook group about this.... but we still need a volunteer leader/kitten-herder to help show the way.
