Fingers crossed. Maybe this time the weather will hold and we can get a ride in!

So, did you guys sneak in a ride? Just returned from camping. It was great; cold, sometimes wet, sometimes sunny, sometimes windy. You need all that for the whole experience.

I chickened out on the ride as it was a bit wet. Others were braver.

If you’re riding in from Sherwood Park, you can take Baseline road which doesn’t exceed 70 km. If your Vespa is feeling especially peppy you could also try Whitemud which I believe starts as township rd 522 on the south side of Sherwood Park. That road doesn’t exceed eighty.

I ride in from just south of Sherwood Park and have used both of those routes, depending on where the meet up is.

I have shepherded Vespa LX50s on the highway. On the uphills, the 50s were doing 24 kph on a highway marked for 100kph. We kept to the side. No problems. Would I want to do it again? Not really.
