Mother's Day Fire Sand Loop Ride




We are headed off to the Fire Sand Loop it is slightly cloudy but we are dressed to get wet. A little water never hurt anyone.


Couldn't figure out why my hands were so hot! Forgot to turn off the hand warmers from my last ride.


Living here in Wawa we have the luxery of playing in our own back yards. Getting out doors and enjoying the fresh air is something we should really appreciate and many would trade us if they could. This looks like a easy way to burn calories but then again this is just the start of the ride.

How many men does it take to make a bridge around a beaver dam? Everybody. The first one gets the wildest, wettest ride and the last one gets a smoother dryer ride. EVERYONE HAD A BLAST. We had to get rid of some clothes we all worked up a sweat.



If your waving at me ... I'm busy trying to get through this mud.


Follow the leader but what's the hold up? We finished the ride with gas to spare and 85 kms. on our bikes. Pretty good for a last minute trip.


The end of the trail ... now where to? Half of the group headed home as they had to get back and cleaned up for supper reservations at the Polish Hall where they enjoyed a delicious supper as always put on by the Polish Alliance. The rest of us headed home where our spouses cooked us a delicious supper while we relaxed in our tubs. What a beautiful way to end a beautiful day.


Our previous plan was to ride to Dubreuilville but we cancelled it as some had dinner reservations they had made earlier. At the last minute a few of us talked a few more into a ride and then we were off. We do not plan another ride next week as we have a long ride to Chapleau on the 24th that is completely booked so it will be another good time.


Early June should be our next planned ride.
