Joe Ghiz park

 Today I cycled to Winsloe, then cycled the trail to the Joe Ghiz park and then cycled the trail back to the bypass and took the roads home Logged 35 km.

Mostly sunny with a high of 10 and a bit of a S wind.

Cycling

Today I cycled to Belvedere Ave, then cycled the trail to the Lower Malpeque road in Winsloe. The trail has firmed up a lot and I would say 90% of summer conditions.  I then cycled the roads home.
Temperature was around +1 but the wind was a NE gusting to 50 km/h. I cycled days in February that were warmer.

Walk

 I thought about going cycling but then there was snow in the air so Iwalked to the business park.

 Another old tree down on one of the trails.

Just a small amount of water flowing in the little creek.
Temp +2 with a N wind blowing 35 with gusts to 50 km/h

Roofing job

 Part of the mall in Cornwall is getting new shingles

I was to the wood lot in the afternoon.

Victoria park

 Today I cycled to Victoria park, Lots of people using the boardwalk.

I then cycled the trail to the bypass hwy. This section near the Farmers market is in good shipe.
I then cycled the road to Winsloe and on home. I was using the new bike Cypress.
Temperature high was 7 but windy, gusting to 40 km/h from the NE.

More bike problems

 Today I cycled to Winsloe, then to the Belvedere Ave where I got this photo of seagulls by the pond near UPEI.  It was windy, 35 gusting 50 km/h from the south. Some times the wind will bring the seagulls inland.

I started with the old bike, but realized the first time I used the brakes there was a problem. As I was only a few hundred meters from home I returned and checked it out. The problem is that the rim split from wear by the brake pad. It is understandable when you realize the wheel is 25 years old and close to 40,000 km on it.
Overcast with a temp of 11 

Chain problems

 I was cycling today and was 5 km from when the chain broke. I was able to call home and got a ride without the bike.

But when home I put the carrier on the car and then got the bike.
The chain was worn out so I just replaced it.
Sunny the first part of the day then cloudy. High temp for the day was 5.  

April snow

 We got at least 15 cm of snow, it was wet so didn't drift  much. I am hoping it will be the last time to use the blower this season.

 I walked to the business park, a lot of snow on the trees.

 I was the first one out walking other than a fox. Close to 20 cm of snow on the bridge.

The sun was hitting the higher branches. It was +2 while I was out for the walk.

Cycling day

 Today I cycled to UPEI, took the trail to the bypass hwy, then Rte 2 to Winsloe. The Cat dealer is located on Rte 2.

This crow was giving me the eye went I took the photo but never flew away.
A mostly sunny day during the afternoon with a high temp of 10.

Crows

 Around 5:00 the sun came out so I went cycling but after 30 minutes there was a shower so I came home.
I then took a 30 minute walk by the woods. The storm clouds were moving in again.

There was murder of crows watching me at one place, about 30 but I didn't get them all in the photo.
At one time during the day the temperature was 12 but down to 8 when I was taking the walk.

Windy day

 I was to the wood lot for the afternoon, these trees had blown over sometime during the winter.

 After supper I was cycling for 90 minutes, this wind generator was making a lot of noise. The wind was 40 gusting to 55 km/h.

I cycled to Winsloe, then to UPEI where this clock tower is located.
The high temperature for the day was 11 but it was down to 8 when I got home from cycling.

Snow on trail

 Today I cycled to Victoria Park, a very strong wind blowing from the NW.

 I see the pilot boat now is in the water.

I cycled the Confederation trail from Grafton street to Rte 2 in Winsloe. Still some snow on the trail in the Royalty Junction area. Trail is still soft in a few areas, it made for a bit of a workout. Temperature was around -4

Petro Canada

The Petro Canada is located in Wnsloe but I didn't stop there.
It was colder today, -5 with a wind chill of -12.

Trail in Winsloe

 Today I was to the wood lot for 3 hours, then after supper I cycled to the mall, the to Winsloe and home by the roads. The trail photo is where it crosses the Lower Malpeque, looking better but I haven't tried it yet, maybe on the weekend.

The photos are overlooking the North River. The temperature was +5 while I was cycling but as you can see by the flag, 30-40 km/h wind out of the NW

Market

 This morning I cycled to the Farmers Market, lots like there was a good crowd at it.

 Lots of cars in the parking lot.

I then cycled to Winsloe, this is where the trail crosses the Lower Malpeque road, the Trail is starting to dry out, I should cycling on it in another week.
Overcast at +8 and a 20 km/h west wind.  We are getting raining this evening.

Mice nests

 Today I was walking for a hour.  This looks like a fox had dug out a couple mice nests.

 This is the windward side of the business park woods, there will be snow for a few days yet.

Farther in the woods no snow on the trail. Overcast with a few light showers all day. Temperature was up to 13.
