Permanent Brevet #221, 201 km
Ride Date: December 1, 2024
by Bob Goodison

Phenomenal day for a December permanent! A few snowflakes in the first 10 km, then it just kept getting better until I was actually riding in sunshine! Low if +1.5C, high of +6C. I used a control card left over from the Early Bird 200 brevet - hope that's ok.

I made 3 route deviations:
1: Took the highway to avoid the underpasses on the frontage road that tend to have ice in them ( didn't have studded tires on)
2: Road construction made it necessary to turn off early for Sunnybrae Rd, which led to
3: I realized that the detours would make me come up 200m short of 200 km, so I continued on the highway to Sorrento and came in on the East end of Dilworth Rd. For a total of 201 km.

Found that the Ross Creek Store has amazing donuts. Good thing it's 59 km away.

Thanks, Bob
