Cool, overcast ride to Chippewa Falls

Sunday, September 14 2014

Hi everybody.  Today's ride was a little cool - about 10C - but it was better than sitting on the couch.

This morning, Hooleo, BP, Kranky, Vic, MrsEchoBay, and I met at McDonalds on Great Northern Road for today's ride. Drifter stopped by to let us know he had bike troubles and wouldn't be able to join us and to picked up a patch, pin and his new membership card. Thanks for coming out Drifter to see us off.

After we chatted for a bit, we headed north of the Sault to Chippewa Falls.  It was cloudy but NO RAIN as we rode up the highway. We stopped at the falls for a bit then went over to the Chippewa Restaurant for something to eat. Vic, Hooleo, BP, MrsEchoBay and I ordered whitefish fingers and fries which we were unable to finish.  There was SO MUCH and it was so good.

When we were ready to leave, Hooleo asked if we could take Hwy 552 back which we did except for Vic who turned off early to head home. We got into some light rain when we turned towards Dunn's Valley and up to the trestle turn off but it wasn't bad. Then we headed back to the Sault, with Hooleo and BP branching off at 6th Line, Kranky at 4th Line and MrsEchoBay and I proceeded to move onward to our place.

All and all it was a pretty good ride considering the weather.

Hopefully, Tuesday will be warmer and we will see everyone then if it's not raining or snowing.

  1. Get all the riding you can because it will just get colder and the dissappointment of the short season this year could set in. This is a "no regrets allowed" time if year. Get out and ride folks - with CMC 032 or on your own and be safe.
