New York - Montreal Trek Makes a Splash at Lake George


The New York - Montreal Trekkers were determined to prove that they could get ready quickly (so they can sleep in more in the future) so this group had a very early start. They had only 22 miles on their route, quite a relief after the previous day's 48-mile ride, so they took their time and explored downtown Glens Falls, NY.

The Trekkers thought they'd outsmart Mother Nature by eating lunch in a gazebo while it rained, but an hour later, when they were back on their bikes, the rain caught up with them.  By the time they reached Lake George, they were drenched -- but the sun came back out while they got to know the town on foot.

After a tasty dinner at their campsite, they walked back into town and discovered a pool dedicated to bumper boats, so, naturally, they had to give that a try.  As you can see from the photo, fun was had by all.

That wasn't even the end of the group's day, though!  They managed to find a magic show to watch before heading back to camp for showers and sleep. 

The group's next ride will take them into lovely, but hilly, Vermont.
