Update "Winter 2010-01-22"

Winter in Alberta transitions from cold to warm in a matter of hours, melting and then freezing into treacherous ice. Thank goodness there is relief at higher elevations, where snow shoeing and x country skiing are still possible.”

<Last fall, I did get myself and my new bike (another Trek 520 ) to Scotland for a few short rides before injuring the meniscus of my left knee. But, thank goodness again, Scotland and the Orkney Isles remained intact (before their siege of disastrous winter storms hit), and I explored by car for a couple of exciting weeks.

< Now it’s the Scots grannies turn to return to Canada, and we are hoping for some further adventures by car and bike of Prairies Canada in the summer of 2010.

<Until then, it’s rehab on my old bike on its wind trainer in my garage. So far, the program is working, and the knee is getting ready for another challenging and inspiring bike season.

<I hope all you cyclists are anticipating the same.

Go Canada!
