well this was living the dream, the reason why i do this stuff. i woke up and got to ride my bike! i just sat on the old trusty cannondale, and started to spin, and cool.
the 1st half, or my 1st half was so special. parked at the kingswood parking lot, and just rode. a spin around the parking lot, and then a spin through some of st albert, explored old mine road, and then the loop, hwy 2 north to 37, hwy 37 to namao, and back to join the gang at kingswood park. i love that loop, some flat, and then a nice hill down, and a nice hill up to hwy 28. love it. a nice way to warm up.
and it's always to ride with a group, well at least begin with a group.....and then back to that hill up to hwy 37!.....i love hills, i love hills, i love hills.....then north to bon accord!...i've never been to bon accord before so that was interesting. getting there was a little boring, a straight road, kind of flat, and not much for scenery, but a wide shoulder, straight, and a lot of room to ride aero...
and getting into non accord and then spinning back out to ride in with our group was kind of cool too....it was good to see a large group, with a bunch of new riders getting in...the look on their faces when they realize that they've made it this far is kind of neat to see.....they're hooked!
bon accord looks like a nice town, i took the quick spin tour....before heading back for a quick trip through the namao base, and back to kingswood......just wished i'd went a litte longer...100K sounds way cooler then 95 something.....but a great day, a bit of a wind burn, and am amazed at what you can do on a bowl of cheereos, a glass of oj, and some magical baked goods...thanx suz
