Touring Bike warm up/down (Mostly pavement) 54:00 [2] 11.2 mi (12.4 mph)
Bike "rogaine"......I did the Homebound church duties by bike this morning....half a dozen parishioners to visit, in any order, in the shortest time possible (I wanted to get back home before the rest of the family devoured the yummy dish I had made for Christmas morning breakfast). It was another mild day, reminding me that I must check the Boxing Day sales for a Gortex bike/run jacket with pit zips.
I met Mrs Santa out for a jog. And saw a cat slide down the roof of a raised ranch that was covered with solar panels.....it landed on its feet on the grass then walked away.
Kayaking (Flat water ) 1:01:00 [3] 6.2 km (6.1 kph)
I think I did a fairly graceful exit from the house this afternoon.
After yesterday's strong SW winds, today's more gentle N winds left Lake Erie pretty calm here in Pigeon Bay. I launched from beside the ferry dock and paddled to Kenyon Point steady, took a picture then paddled back steady. Fingerless gloves and Greenland paddle.....sunshine.....just enough wind to make some ripples.....livin' the dream!
I saw one person on their back deck on my way out, then on the way back, 3 rec kayaks and 1 canoe out in the water. 3/4 were wearing life jackets and of those, 2/3 were zipped up. I did not feel overdressed with neoprene + dry wear (and PFD, of course), but hey, I don't want to be a statistic.
Merry Christmas!
