Nice May Weekend

Pretty awesome weekend!

Started out Saturday with a trip down to the Biker Church's swap meet.
Tons of people and bikes, and quite a collection of motorcycle parts for those looking.
Refreshments, draws, local vendors...even a band.
It has become quite an occasion.

The Biker Church does a great job getting the diversity that is the "biker" community together.
Definately an "all walks of life" scene....little old ladies and families to the 1% 'rs.
Rice rockets to choppers.
Neat to see.

From there it was off to the Experimental Farm via the Canal and Tulip- Fest.
Everything is starting to bloom...best time of the year there. Lots of amazing sites.
We drive by at least once a week to keep up with the colours.
We are plant nerds, I guess.

Stopped for a break.







Sunday was ride day with Brent.
We headed up to Peterborough, and from there to Bobcaygeon. The Kawartha area is certainly worth checking out...pretty good roads, nice scenery...all the important stuff.
On the way we crossed a causeway at Chemong Lake..it was pretty amazing....a small detour that probably caused an hour of extra riding...but that is OK!
 On to Bancroft, McArthurs Mills, Denbigh,  Kartum and home from Renfrew.
Actually turned out to be a pretty respectable ride...just under 700 km for the day, and we didn't bust our balls doing it. Pretty relaxed.
Probably the best ride day so far this year, and the 1st of many.
