GT Rider Posted March 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) We pass the for sale Isle Verte clubhouse. We make Our way to Trois Pistoles clubhouse and take a break. Gemma says her hands are cold. I find that a fuse has blown. The cook at the clubhouse looks in the garage but finds only the large size fuses. We need the mini. I left a bag full back at the hotel.

GT Rider Posted March 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 107 maybe next time around. The hour is getting late we are heading back.
