Squeezed in a ride on the poto before my cousin's wedding. It was nice getting away for the day. It felt really good to ride, though I wish I had more time. I took the shortcut. I alternately loved and was annoyed at this trail. It is so eroded in some places, which can be fun sometimes, but I guess I'm not good enough to just fly down massively erroded/washed out hills. It's good practice though. I have to go back and ride when I actually have time to ride the whole thing.

North on the Saginaw River toward the bay. I was totally going to paddle around the bay, but it was apparently much farther than I'd thought. I thought I was right there, but looking at my track, I was apparently still pretty far from it. There were storm warnings, but things looked ok. Then, as I was approaching the dock, the park speakers gave the "Take shelter immediately. Do not delay." warning. So, I hurried to get the kayak out and packed up. Success. No thunder storming on me. I will need to attempt this again on a clear day and start closer to the bay like in Essexville.
