12 July 2007 - We took a little local trip today, covering 21.2 km. We explored some local urban neighbourhoods and also Riverwood Park. We ended up at Hog's Back Falls and then Mooney's Bay for a picnic lunch.
At Mooney's Bay we watched the workers setting up for this weekend's Beach Volleyball Tournament. Judging by the number of Porta-Potties they have, they are expecting large crowds!
The complete story is in our on-line journal.

We took the time to explore a local undeveloped park. The gravel trail was perfect for us to cycle on.
Here is another shot of Ruth and the quadracycle in Riverwood Park.
This was the view across and south on the Rideau River, when we finally found it deep in the park.
Ruth was all smiles on this trip - we got lots of exercise and saw some interesting places.
This was the view to the north along the Rideau River.
The quadracycle sits waiting for us to return from the riverbank.
We were getting ready to leave and head further north.
At the Hog's Back Falls we ran into Tony riding a battery powered e-Bike that he got at Canadian Tire, an interesting way to get around!
After our picnic lunch at Mooney's Bay we got ready to make the pedal home again.
