An eastern Wisconsin woman is on a mission to visit certain landmarks throughout the Badger State.

Those landmarks are places that sell gas, glazers, and coffee.

Whitney Meza, also known as Whit, is on a quest to visit all the Kwik Trip stores in Wisconsin in just 11 days.

Meza reached the La Crosse area Friday on her Harley-Davidson, but her bike had a battery problem, which slowed down her travels.

Meza’s plan is to ride 14 hours per day and stop at as many Kwik Trips as possible, getting a receipt from every store as proof of her visit.

She lives in Ripon, where she started her journey on May 7 and plans to finish at a Kwik Trip in Sturgeon Bay.
