I rode the whole way from Dauphin out to the Lebanon Reservoir. After a brief interlude for sandwiches and tea, I turned around and rode the whole way back to Dauphin.
I had never done the whole trail before, so that’s one to scratch off my list.
This is my longest ride so far this year, and my longest ride ever on the Karate Monkey.
Today: 40 miles
Sept: 142 miles
2008 Utility Miles: 317
2008 Total Miles: 677 miles
Well done! and a beautiful day for it too.
Sounds like a good ride. The first photos is really beautiful! Where is that?
Whoops. I am assuming that’s Lebanon Reservoir. Also, doesn’t hot tea make you feel too … hot?
Yep, that’s the reservoir.
When I left in the morning, it was kind of cold out, so tea seemed like a nice idea. By the time I got to the reservoir, it had warmed up quite a bit, but the whole romance of the idea of making a pot of tea kind of got the best of me and I made some anyhow. Iced tea would have been a better idea, but I didn’t have any ice in my saddlebag 🙂
Damm Girtong…. Thats a tough ride… Nice job
