A Better View

Apart from my continuous efforts with training, I am also preparing for my next trip by improving my skills in photography.  My friend Qurie has agreed to provide some guidance for which I am grateful.  I am also saving up for a new camera since mine died in Peru.   In the meantime I am using Al's camera.

Anyway here are some shots I took while going for a walk.

Metric Century

This fall has been a record-breaking warm season with one day the  temperature reaching a high of 31 degrees.  We rode every day as long and as hard as possible.  The colors were brilliant, the wind was frustratingly strong and the sky was that clear blue that is only in the prairies.  I am proud to report that I completed my first metric century ride in 4 hours and 22 minutes.









What a great way to spend the day!
