Did my real first bike ride of the year. Went to past the town of Saint-Gérard-Majella to do a nice round number of 50km. It's quite an early first ride this year, this the 18th of March. Last year at this date I was doing some cross-country skiing on the St-Pierre lake. We had a record breaking snow accumulation last winter of 2008, so I was doing cross-country skiing right into the first week of April. But this year of 2009 is quite the contrary: Rain in late winter and warm weather before spring equinox makes for better cycling conditions than cross-country conditions.Saw 5 deer while listening to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon masterpiece along the Rg St-Antoine in Yamaska.
The above pic is actually in Saint-David along the 5è Rang looking south.
