Comments: The rate of Snowfall in December meant snow removal activity took priority over cycling activity. Consequently, my December cycling stats look somewhat pathetic.

Comments: First cycling effort since January 17th! With the outdoor snow removal activity over the past month and a half, I haven't had the energy or time to spin. Though, honestly, at 47° it was nice enough this afternoon for a spin outdoors. But today I did some yard work, too!

Fat Tire Exploration Ride
Cycling along, first down to Salmon Creek CC to inspect their newly resurfaced driveway. While there, I thought to go around the back of the clubhouse where the snack bar was located (remembering the years when SalmonCreek was a customer that I serviced for Bachman back in the day, 1985-2002"). I went down a golf cart path a bit, then doubled back and headed for the Canal towpath.

Cycling the towpath west to Gallup Road, I went over the bridge and turned into Aroowhead GC and Marina. After touring their parking lot, I went back to Gallup. Entering the old Rochester, Lockport & Buffalo rail line pathway from Gallup, the path westward was rough with railbed dolomite stone. About a mile down the stony path, I could see Sweden Walter Road ahead and thought good, I had enough. But at Sweden Walker Road, the path continued west and looked wide and smooth. For another 1/2 mile, the path WAS wide and smooth, then more rough stone like the first section off Gallup road. The old trolley path was mostly stony but clear of debris. Along each side of this old trolley bed were wooded areas and swampy spots. I saw a Deer and a Snapping Turtle, but no human activity on the 2-1/2 mile segment. I exited the path at Owens Road by the Brockport Fire Station. A path leading to the Soldier's Memorial Tower was overgrown, so I decided not to visit there. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/gps-cs-s/

I crossed north over the Canal at State Street in Brockport and took the towpath back east to Gordon Road. At Gallup Road, I turned onto Ogden Parma TL Rd. and explored some of the paths at the abandoned Golf Course, then I biked home

Comments: I was hoping to catch up with a throng of cyclists. I must have arrived too late, or there were not many doing the CtEC ride this year. There was no bike crowd at McColleys (unless those lunch riders were parking their bikes in the back).

Comments: A morning ride to chase misinformation
I saw on the local news that the CTeC Tour started up yesterday(Monday). Of course, the tour didn't start yesterday; it came through town yesterday! But the local news had shown riders getting on their bikes in Buffalo. A caption could have stated that the date of the video was July 12th, because that was the Buffalo to Medina passage day. So then it turns out that yesterday was the CtEC passage from Medina to Fairport. The news report was inaccurate and incomplete. So, it turned out that I was a day early and a day late to view the throng of cyclists. The lesson here is NEVER DEPEND ON A SINGLE SOURCE FOR COMPLETE ACCURATE INFORMATION.
My bad! xxxxxxxxxxxx A side note: The batteries on my ebikes have supported 3 rides apiece since the last charge (with energy to spare); 50.2 miles on the 6-year-old Juiced battery, and 52.32 miles on the 4-year-old Gen2 Juiced battery
