s My 210 Elans still go pretty fast (in a straight line). Once a year I pull 'em out of storage, wax them up, and scare the bejeezus out of myself.

a great climb. I've summitted 3 times, most recently September 2019. Can't go now due to international border restrictions, but will return when able. Hard on the body due to my advancing decrepitude :D

And then there's the whole international border thing :(

Great thread. I don't yet have a GPS but will refer to this thread when I decide to join the 21st century :D

I love that trail. We bicycle on it every August during our annual visit to southern Maine. Here's to happier times:)

I was in the Chic Chocs this weekend past. Arrived just after 20 inch snowfall, gorgeous skiing and snowshoeing. Drove back to Halifax on Monday. Local day hikes for me for the foreseeable future (maybe some cycling). Social distancing always.

I live across the harbour from Halifax, in Dartmouth Nova Scotia. Coincidentally, I'll be in Boston and the Whites in March. Highways are twinned all the way. Take 95 until it ends, then cross the border and take the Trans Canada highway East to Halifax. Lots of restaurants. Go to...

I have done this one. very scenic. coyote paralleled my track for about 30 minutes, until it figured that I wasn't heading for a massive MI:)
