It was a miserable, wet, and cold start to the day: 1 degree Celcius (that's about 34 Fahrenheit) and rain. We met at 8:30am for bacon, eggs, and terrible coffee. We took our time to see if the shitty weather would improve. By 9:30am, it was the same. Let's ride, kids. It's November 11th, Remembrance Day. This will most likely be the last dual sport ride of the season for this gang.
The rain was actually beginning to slow down by
the time breakfast was over.
We rode the trails along the power lines for a couple of hours
The sun was out by afternoon and temps were in the low teens (Celcius)
Chewing a piece of ice
This beaver dam created a massive flood, easily 2 feet deep.
...and at least 150 feet across.
The water was quite cold.
We ended the day at the Neat Café in Burnstown.
The roast their own coffee beans. Here is a bucket of raw beans.
This is the roasting machine.
And this is the machine used to cool the roasted beans.
The finished product. This was a medium roast
of a Nicaraguan bean
And the video highlights from the ride.
