In celebration of my bike odometer turning 100 miles for the season, it was grilling night tonight at Island Lake on a beautiful evening. Okay, so we were planning on grilling even before I noticed last year's Christmas present was going to turn 100 but it makes for good press, eh? I was realizing tonight as everyone came back from the trail without any abrasions that we haven't had a good wipe out in some time. We are due! Are we just getting to be better riders or do we suck so bad going grandma speed that it just isn't going to happen? I think the latter with a splash of the former is what we are evolving to; and that is okay. 
In attendance tonight was Molson Bike Tour alumnus Darren (aka Hardcore) and a Highland Junior High blast from the past, Scott Walker. Unfortunately, Scott went to Lakeland and that is too bad. He is one of the better folks from that side of the tracks though.
Lastly, would you look at the determination in E's face? It's not about the fancy outfits on the bike tour. There is work involved! What goes up eventually goes down so E will eventually be a very happy rider in about 30 seconds after this picture was taken.
