HOLIDAY TIME
We didn't make any long trips this summer. The family just wasn't in the mood. This will mark the first time since 2015 that we weren't on the shores of Lake Superior. I miss it but it was okay.

As usual we rent our neighbour's cottage up on Ahmic Lake NE of Parry Sound. Besides time on the water it is also a great place to go riding. There is an abundance of gravel roads and also some of my favourites that are signed "Not A Through Road" and "No Winter Maintenance Beyond This Point". I can't help but point my bike down those. They always lead to some place interesting.

Since I've been back I've gone out for a couple of local rides. Peel and Halton are pretty flat. Near Ahmic Lake isn't. One ride was 75Km and a vertical kilometre of climbing. You can't get that around here. Not sure it made me a stronger rider but it was one heck of a workout!

Hope to see you on the trails!
