Man that’s hot! Doing yard work while waiting for a call regarding what it will take to fix the electronics in my car might have pushed my bike ride to the too hot part of the day.

Canada Day toodle around the neighbourhood. A perfect day. So much so that it was impossible to find a spot that wasn’t full of people. Fairy Lake was particularly busy.
83rd time the country has taken the day off for my mom’s birthday.

Mountain ride with Flight. She put her power pedals and used road shoes.
We started with my typical river ride and then went into the Holland Landing forest area. This is very lightly used and has a wide mix of terrain: pine needles, loose sand, bog. There are lots of options so it is a good place to go and ride around as long as you want. It isn’t mapped out, and there isn’t any indication of when you are entering or leaving the official forest area. Hordes of mosquitoes so you have to keep moving.
I think it might take most of a day to map it out.
When we got home, Flight found out she accidentally got some 2nd best time segments on an ill fitting mountain bike with road shoes.
