Shannie was off being a good ctizen today by volunteering her time helping collect donations for the local food bank. Because I’m a cold-hearted selfish jerk, I took advantage of the cloudless skies and 21°C temperatures to put my biking pants on and go for a spin around the country. Today’s route took me North from Amsterdam to a small village called Marken, almost entirely along dikes on The Netherland’s East coast.

It was an absolutely gorgeous day, except for the blustery head wind off the ocean that I had to contend with for the ride out. However, this made the ride back home ridiculously fast.
Also, sunscreen would have been a nice idea. I’m, um, a little torched right now.
(These photos may take a while to load, I don’t have any photo editing software on the computer I’m using right now, so they’re all just pulled straight off the camera. Patience is a virtue, etc.)
Scott, buddy, good to see that you’re doing some riding.
Your pic’s for the Queen’s Day post are hilarious. Two questions: 1. WHy are you wearing a face mask in one of the pics?, 2. One of the pics looks like human target-practice. What’s that all about?
Hope you get lots more rides in. I’m doing a triathlon in Edmonton this Sunday. From: your cousin Adam Koleba living in Barrhead, Alta
Great work Scottie to soak in the sun while Shannie helps those in need. That is the dynamic duo I know and miss!
Great blog – always look forward to the next adventure!
