quiet waters mountain biking

Way back when in February I went to the Outdoor Adventure Show and I twisted my friend Leslie's arm to go on a learn-how-to-kayak weekend with me. We booked 2 days including meals kayaking lessons and camping accommodation with a company called Equinox Adventures that has a rafting and kayaking camp located on Calumet Island in the Ottawa River. So Friday we got ready. I picked Leslie up from work and we headed off on Highway 401 east of Toronto. We got stuck in rush hour traffic for a solid hour and half until I decided to go north of the highway to take a country road. We stopped in for a nice little dinner in Belleville and after driving through the beautiful countryside in Eastern Ontario and after getting lost on the winding roads near our destination we finally set up our tent at about 11 pm illuminated by the headlights of my car. The Equinox river camp is very basic located around an old farmhouse are 3 different campgrounds (for noisy semi-noisy and quiet campers..) an outbuilding with extremely basic men's and women's bathrooms that have 2 toilet stalls as well as 4 functioning shower stalls in a co-ed shower and an outdoor eating area covered by tarps that are draped over metal railings. Luxury accommodation this is definitely not. Saturday morning we got started early we actually got woken up by the mooing of cows in the farmers field next door at about 6 am. Other campers reported that some of the cows took a walk right through the camp ground and actually left some sizeable paddies behind. It was fabulous to be in a tent again after not having gone camping for about 8 years.... We got a simple breakfast some pancakes and pre-packaged muffins (some of them a little furry) and we started picking our kayak gear and headed off with our knowledgeable guide Christine and her helper Krista in a van to the Ottawa River. We got suited up with our life jackets helmets and sprayskirs and then put our kayaks in the water. I had a devil of a time getting my sprayskirt over the kayak's opening because it was so tight. We started with simple paddling exercises in the calm waters of the Rocher Fendu dam and first learned how to do a "wet exit": after you tip the kayak and are underneath the vessel (panic time for most people) we were taught to rip the sprayskirt off and swim our way out of the kayak. Paddling was quite difficult since the angle of the blades of the paddle is offset so while your right hand is supposed to stay still the left hand is supposed to tilt a little so the left blade of the paddle goes into the water at the proper angle. I had a bit of a problem with that since my right arm is way stronger than my left arm (from playing tennis) and I couldn't get the entry angle of the left side of the paddle right so many times I ended up going in a circle off to the left having to paddle 3 or 4 times on the left side just to straighten myself out again. The kayaks are perfectly flat on the bottom so there is no hull to help you out with the tracking on the water. Paddling got a little more difficult when we went up the Ottawa River and my own personal faulty technique caused me to veer off to the left all the time causing me to get caught in the current of the river drifting downstream against the direction of where we were trying to go. I then realized a few things: that the currents on a river as big as the Ottawa River are extremely strong and that my upper body strength was waning pretty quickly. I really developed some major respect for the river and for the skills involved in kayaking. To be honest. I never quite got the hang of it. We were taught skills like "ferrying" i e getting across a current at an angle or the "T-rescue" where a second kayak comes up to you after you have tipped your kayak and are trapped underneath the boat in the water. You are then supposed to tap on your own kayak 3 times to make noise to alert other paddlers that you have capsized. Then you have to reach along the side of the boat to locate the second kayak and then you put both hands on the other kayak and twist yourself out from underneath your own vessel with a flick of the hips. I have to admit. I am a pretty athletic person and I love speedy sports like downhill skiing and mountain biking and I am actually pretty good at them. But some things about whitewater kayaking gave me the chills just the idea of getting entrapped upside down underneath the kayak possibly snagged by a rock underneath the water and not being able to get back up freaked me out. So I decided that in the future I would try calmer water sports such as canoeing or sea kayaking on a calm lake instead of facing mortal danger on the rapids. To reassure all of you readers though: all the other kayaking students did fine they went upriver and came down through some mild rapids and had a great time paddling themselves around on the Ottawa River on Saturday and Sunday. And Christine our guide was very helpful and there was always another kayaking student around to help you if you were in trouble so assistance to safety was never far away. Saturday evening we actually watched a safety video for whitewater kayaking and in the video I realized that advanced whitewater kayaking is a pretty dangerous sport and the risk of drowning or hurting yourself by getting entrapped in rocks or "strainers" (fallen tree branches that stick out of the water) is substantial and must be avoided at all cost. We also learned that working as a team and rescuing one's team mates are critical life-saving skills. By this time I had already decided that I would trade my second day of kayaking lessons in for some mountain biking on Sunday combined with a little photo safari of Calumet Island. So Sunday morning after my interview with Krista she was kind enough to lend me her mountain bike and I grabbed my camera and started my discovery of Calumet Island a large island in the Ottawa River wedged between Ontario and Quebec. I cycled through forests rolling hills grazing pastures and past a few extremely well-kept country properties. I spent about an hour cycling on dirt roads to the edge of the Ottawa River where I started to experiment with my camera a little bit. My brother-in-law Roger a consummate graphic designer and visual artist had recently taught me how to do close-up shots of plants and other objects so I started experimenting taking close-range shots of plants and flowers right next to the Ottawa River. This was the first time I experimented with this photo technique and I have to say I was reasonably pleased with the outcome once I came home last night and downloaded the images. On my way back from the river I had an interesting encounter: I drove by a barn and saw 2 horses grazing in the distance. They looked up and noticed me and as if on cue two other horses came out of the barn as well. They started approaching me as I was standing on the side of the road behind a wire fence. All four horses came trotting towards me. About half way from me they stopped in unison checked me out then looked at each other figured they had seen all they needed to see and trotted off in perfect coordination again. It was a really comical cross-species encounter and I ended up chuckling to myself when the horses disappeared again into the barn. After my 2 hour mountain biking excursion I spent the rest of Sunday exploring the island in my car and drove through rolling hills and farm land. Upon my return to the camp ground I spread out a blanket under a tree and did some open-air reading. All the other campers were gone to either river raft or kayak and the campground was totally quiet all you could hear were the crickets and an occasional moo from a cow. It was serenity at its best. The other rafters and kayakers came back in the afternoon and they all reported that they had had a fabulous time at their respective water sports. At about 4:30 we headed back out on the road and did a nice 5 hour highly scenic drive through towns like Eganville and Bancroft that are surrounded by rolling hills lush green forests and ancient rock faces before we headed into the serene lake district of the Kawartha Highlands. It was a perfect weekend - a combination of adventure and relaxation under crystal blue skies and it just taught me how beautiful the back roads of Ontario can be.

Those who experience me would say that I’m slightly crazy about racing triathlons. When those who don’t experience me comprehend about the distance of triathlon I like to go they think I’m just plain crazy. Out of lie? Probably not. Actually they may be partially correct but it is something that I am passionate about and it has helped to enrich my life so I’m ok with being a little crazy. Last Sunday was the 2007 installment of Ironman Wisconsin which of course means that it has been a full year since I completed my first Ironman on September 10. 2006. I watched some of this years race via webcast and had mixed emotions. It was exciting to see the familiar sights of race day in Madison but was sad at the same time because part of me wished I was there. As 5am approaches I interact my special needs bags that I packed the night before and my bike pump and continue downstairs. On a normal day the capitol square in Madison would be dead silent at 5am but today it was a frenzy of nervous athletes all with the same be in their eyes that says. “Holy egest. I’m doing an Ironman today!” After dropping my bags in the allot bins I continue drink to the Monona furnish and get in line for be marking. Now the go DJ is piping Enya through the speakers probably to back up comfort all the nervous triathletes scurrying about. It actually kind of worked. After waiting a bring together of minutes I decide to pump my tires and go back when the lines are shorter. Good label. When I came approve 10 minutes later I only had to act for the Australian guy who made the typical joke about dropping his pants for the cute girl to create verbally his race number on his legs. Not bad.

Bocas del Toro flaunts all of the country’s complex geographical and topographical features. Its lowland tropical rainforests as pristine as before Columbus ventured here in 1502 angle upward to the cool darken forests of the rugged Talamanca Mountains (Cordillera Central). Offshore coral reefs teem with marine life around an archipelago of white sand and mangrove-fringed tropical islands. Tucked into Panama’s northwestern most command. “Bocas” is bordered by the Caribbean on the north. Costa Rica on the west. Chiriqui on the south and Veraguas on the east. Only about 90,000 people live in its 1,684 square miles/4,632 square kilometers and there are only three principal towns; Changuinola in the heart of banana country the port town of Almirate and town the offshore provincial capital on 23. 5-square mile/60-square kilometer Isla Colon. Only Bocas town is developed for tourism. Unless you’re fascinated by banana production you’ll head straight for the laid-back Caribbean islands and their wealth of natural and sporting adventures. Until a few years ago these paradisiacal islands were virtually unknown outside of Panama. Nothing of say happened from day to day here object for the few wandering expats that happened by and stayed to put down roots. The scant tourism industry relied on backpackers busing down from Costa Rica and a few naturalist adventurers. Almost overnight a go of settlers from Europe and the US arrived and began to open hotels resorts and restaurants. Investors and entrepreneurs mostly North American flocked in to cheaply buy up island property to create or to plant with teak. Property values skyrocketed. Fortunately this wave of expats hasn’t diluted Bocas’ core culture of English-speaking Blacks whose forefathers arrived generations ago; Spanish-speaking Mestizos; Guaymi and Teribe Indians; the few descendants of long-ago European settlers and mixtures of any or all of these. Despite the go to buy it up. Bocas is still laid-back: English is still spoken in honeyed Caribbean accents or lilting Guari-Guari (WAh-ree-WAH-ree) a local patois derived from Caribbean English. Old Spanish and Indian dialects spiced with a hint of cut; the ginger-breaded wooden houses look as weathered as ever; pony-tailed open Buffet look-alikes comfort sit around sucking up cold beers; calypso and reggae blasts from the bars at night and the guy who builds giant copy airplanes still hauls his latest four-footer up and down the main drag. There’s just more of everything lately - more hotels and resorts more restaurants (some of them extraordinary) more tourists more transient yachtsmen and more Gucci-shod entrepreneurs with cell phones stuck in their ears. Columbus explored the bay and some of the islands while still searching for gold and a westward passage to the lie. He open neither. Only lush forests white sand beaches and bays so beautiful he attached his name to some of them: Isla Colon (Columbus Island). Bahia de Almirante (Admiral Bay) and Isla Cristobal (Christopher Island). Since no gold was found here he sailed away. The Spanish continued to ignore the region and by the 17th century its islets cayes and lagoons had change state a haven for pirates. Rumors of buried treasure still exist but none has ever been found. During the 17th and 18th centuries inter-tribal wars. Spain’s convert-or-die policies and European diseases decimated the local indigenous population. It was also during the 18th century that a small assort of cut Huguenots in search of religious freedom settled near the coast. The Spanish discovered them and in 1725 most were killed. By the mid-1700s a handful of British immigrants had established poultry and cattle farms on the north align of Isla Colon. By the early 19th century. British ships were arriving with goods to trade for mahogany turtles and overturn shells coconuts and sarsaparilla and town had developed. About the same measure wealthy English and Scottish immigrants arrived from the United States and Columbia’s Providencia and San Andres islands bringing with them their Black slaves who stayed on after slavery was abolished in 1830. In 1890 the Snyder Banana affiliate established the first banana plantations along the lagoon. In 1899 the United bear Company moved in bought out the Snyders and built its headquarters in Bocas town. United Fruit established most of the island’s infrastructure of roads bridges and a nine-mile/15-kilometer canal connecting to Changinola on the mainland. French-speaking Blacks from Martinique and Guadalupe who had worked on the French furnish and West Indians Blacks from Jamaica. Barbados and Antigua who worked on the coerce and US canal moved to Bocas to bring home the bacon on the banana plantations. change flourished until between 1914 and 1934 when a banana pest called “Panama disease” wiped out the plantations.
