No passport, no USA. No BMW R65- no Jake. So Danny boy came up with plan B.. Cottage from his (ex) sis in law new fiance.. Say that 3x fast.
Well say Gratis and we say "yes" faster.. I left O-town late. Chasing clouds.. It was P pouring rain all day long. I Fuelled and left at 17:00 in the sun. Took highway 30 around Mtl. Arrived at Dans and had a coffee. Fueled up again.. Hit the cottage in the dark at 9.
Had left over Sphag from the night before.
Met with Cindy and her fiance Dave and thank them for use of the cottage.. Chatted till late.
Slept in and waited for rain to stop- Oatmeal was our salvation along with the only TV channel- CBC newsworld. Rain quit at 11 and our bikes were fired up.. Rode around Orford and outlying regions.. Stopped off at L'Abbee St. Benoit sur Lac.. Beautiful monestary. Bought cheese and Jam..
Had a cigar along the way and head back for BBQ steak and cesear.. Good chat and another cigar.. No rain riding..
Bed then big breaky and ride home.. Very good! Relaxing and catching up..
800K on bike. Not a hiccup.. However fuel mileage is a pain in the nuts. Panniers worked great. Tons of space and the Wolfman Bag was awesome for pillow and Sleeping bag. I also bought a 1l fuel can with Wolfman bottle holders.. Ill need two cans..
Dam I may need three or a bigger fuel tank.
Good year so far with mileage.. On the T alone well over 1200 Kilometers.. Ural- 500?
On the bicycle front.. Bike train is in full effect.. Two times to School.. Should last the next two weeks.. The boys are stoked!
And the pic of C with his class- Its his Bannar walk- SK to Gr 1
Speaking of stoked- this is what saving up my "no-wobbly pops" policy buys me- Yes it has two wheels.
