Mixed ride checking out some trails across the river and towards the university. There are lots of great smooth singletrack trails which work very well for the gravel bikes.

We've just got gravel bikes with us (thought that we'd be in Edmonton for longer) so cobbled together a mixed ride. Very warm today though it was tolerable on the road sections with more airflow. I wanted to ride north along the river but the channel crossing sis still underwater so headed back to 5 mile. The singletrack in the coulees is quite manageable on a gravel bike due to it's smoothness. I did about 20 km of gravel out and back to the St Mary's river (Courtney skipped this section). Softer gravel for about half this which required more concentration and bike handling. I enjoyed the ride - good to do some steady road km. Came back through the coulees on singletrack.

Physiotherapy exercises.

Coulees in Lethbridge.

Morning run in the river valley in Edmonton. I had vague memories of running on these trails though nothing distinct and still had to use the map while out running.

Quick ride with Milo and Courtney before driving to Edmonton (Courtney's dad was in the ICU post op - unfortunately he passed away on Tuesday after we withdrew care).

Parkway with Sean and Stuart. The former was on his way to Nelson for a gravel bike trip with Magic Places. I felt much better than last week...
