Much of life moves in cycles. Work and rest. Summer and fall. Leaving and coming back.  

This issue explores that rhythm.  

Our cover story dives into the heritage of processing Minnesota wild rice into perpetuity. We share that story with you online.  

Then pick up the print version for the scoop on pump tracks, the revival of Last Turn Brew Pub in Brainerd, a lineup of triathlons that make the most of Lake Country, and so much more.
