Every Monday nite, weather permitting, we have a ladies only ride. It's mainly to get the girls together for a ride and some fun. It's also a great chance for new riders to get some practice without the intimidation that sometime comes from riding with guys. This summer the weather hasn't been co-operating with us on Mondays...but tonite was bee-you-tee-ful!! Couldn't have asked for better.. Warm summer evening with a soft breeze.. no rain.. just Awesome!! We met at Tim Hortons in Tantallon .. thought maybe there'd be a half dozen or so ladies .. well when all was said & done and we rolled out.. we were 20 bikes.. !! One of the girls even had her dog on the back..his name is Harley :o)
So we headed down to the historic Peggys Cove ... nice curvy road , nothing too serious.. just a nice relaxing ride. We turned more than a few heads let me tell you.. LOL... 20 bikes rolling along, all ridden by ladies. When we got to Peggys Cove, we had a rest .. someone remembered that in the village there was an ice cream place so dontcha know, we had to check that out. Turns out it was homemade ice cream.. mmmmm yummy ! Flavors like , Nova Scotia Berry, Mango and Lavender to name just a few. Then since we had two brand new riders with us who were still on the 30 day/no night driving restriction, we headed back to Tantallon. Some broke off at Tantallon and headed for home.. but most of us went back to Tims for a coffee and a 'yack' before calling it a nite..One lady, Beth, came from Annapolis county.. she had over an hours ride to get home ! There's another ride being planned for next Monday and looks like CBC TV will be there to do a story about lady riders.. How cool is that? LOL
