Nice ride with the big boy. He was motivated on the way home and did the last bit faster than Kipchoge, including the uphills.

Strength 1:00:00 [2]
Easy workout 1, Some core and rehab, and another load of logs heaved, hauled, split and stacked.
I'm building a Holz Hausen Norwegian-style round woodpile. That should hold another cord of wood or so to dry.

Hiking 1:00:00 [2] +200m
Hike with Bash on some new-to-us trails from Camperdown up to parts of the SSR map. Always cool to explore new trails and the leaves and views were amazing.
Hard, worn-down old hiking boots aren’t ideal for steep clay slopes. Be great on snowshoes!

Cycling 1:30:52 [3] 16.19 km (10.7 kph) +276m
Minesing bike trail. We’ve done this for about 23 years, but this may have been the most spectacular due to the tunnel of yellow leaves above and the carpet below.
The leaves did tend to hide treacherous rocks and holes, but my new tire was really grippy and I had an easier ride than Bash.

Nice ride with the big guy.
We got a scare when I let him out before bed, and he eventually came back *outside* the fence. Lawn guys had left the gate open. Good thing he had 2 days of solid workouts, and didn’t go for an epic adventure.

Couple of hours of lumberjack work- hurled a load out of the bush, loaded and hauled to the woodshed, split and stacked 3 loads.
Also portaged and hung the boats for winter.

Good tour of Palgrave East doubletrack with the big boy. He had a nice wallow in the clear stream too.
Note- Bash heard that Ticktober is upon us- hikers in Palgrave found 3 ticks on them.

Cycling 1:01:25 [3] 13.23 km (12.9 kph) +222m
I surrendered after too many attempts to mount the new tire, and had to drive to the bike shop. It took them many tries and 45 min to mount it. Eventually they put in a tube, over-pumped until the bead popped, then removed one side and took out the tube. It finally aired up.
It was fairly late after I got back, hiked the dogs with Bash and headed to Albion.
Had a great ride, but then part way through got a text that Earl and Myrtle were camping there, along with their humans Funderstormin and Greg. Bash came down for Happy Hour. Fine outing of riding, socializing.
