Red River Trail - Fargo, ND & Viking Ship Park Trail - Moorhead, MN

Originally we had not planned on riding in North Dakota on this trip.  We got up Sunday morning and saw that Fargo, North Dakota was only 3 hours away to the Northwest so we said WTH let's knock off another state on our Quest to ride in all 50 States!(MAP) 
So we looked up and found the Red River Trail ran along the Red River as it passes through Moorhead Minnesota on the East side and Fargo ND on the West side.  The Trails we rode consisted of the Red River Trail on the North Dakota side and the Viking Ship Park Trail on the Minnesota side.  Both very nice trails.  

Gotta capture that prototypical State Welcome Sign! or you weren't there!

Just getting started on our ride. Always look to find a Trail sign.

We packed up after the ride and headed back home.  Was close to midnight before we got home.  Was a fun trip overall even though the Royals were boys amongst men in their game.
