PLAYHARD Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Rode up here a day early to stage for a 4 day jaunt, and made the most of the reorientation. A little jump starting (red goes on red by the way), a little wardrobe coordination (sunshine boosts temps beyond sub zero layering's needs by the way), a little convalescent visiting (lazy kitters activity levels are contagious by the way). A perfect day to knock off the cobwebs mentally & mechanically, and burn out the fudge that 2 yr old gaz can become, so we're ready for a proper official 1st day reentry ride tomorrow!

PLAYHARD Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) We took the old normal way out of Shawini Sud, and wound up on some goat paths that took us into a few backyards. "Bonus ride!" Backtracked to Drakkar where we'd observed the only bit that resembled grooming southbound toward the gas.

PLAYHARD Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) Despite being off like a herd of turtles, we acquired the target mission destination! Ta da! Pretty sure our fried brains appreciated this 24 miles as much as we would a north pole expedition!

PLAYHARD Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Maybe the wood stove heat, maybe Shaggy setting the tone for chillaxing, surely the fine chatter, somehow the afternoon was gone, so we turned & rode back to HQ into an absolutely frickin awesome sunset (sorry we didn't get pics of the best of it).

Hope you guys have a blast. Everyone looks comfy at Chez Ice. Thats one furry feline there. Lost our beloved boy back in November. He went wayyyy to early. We miss him terribly. Last time we were in Shawinigan 3 yrs ago (???) there was so much snow you had to creep into intersections just to try and see around the snow banks.

Then again, they're spared the pain of the losses. Just be careful about volunteering at your local animal rescue, because you may wind up with more than you bargained for.

I was taught many years ago the best way to drink it is fill a cup with snow and pour it in.
