St. Peter, "where history and progress meet," was the intended capital of Minnesota, before someone sneakily got St. Paul designated for that distinction.
Among the notable residents is the inventor of the jump shot. And an interesting "tidbit" (in the words of the city) is that Jesse James' gang spent the night in St. Peter before robbing the bank in Northfield.
My riding friend Matt went to college in St. Peter and seems to be of the strong opinion that a very good hamburger can be found there. This is the city to which I will ride from Redwood Falls one week from today. I will test Matt's theory.
