Lake Placid

After our Monte-Sainte-Anne adventure we decided that we would stop halfway to Windham to make it an easy double travel day. What better place than Lake Placid. All I could think about though was giant alligators from the movie Lake Placid...We were lucky enough to coming into the US of A on the 4th of July. Nothing says american more than going out to 1 of only 2 original Howard Johnsons with the full original buffet dinners. That is $9.99 for all you can eat fatty foods. Since most of us cyclists eat somewhat healthy it was nice to binge or some awesome fake beef, bleu cheese sauce, mac&cheese and sausages. After we filled our tanks we headed downtown for some 4th of July action. I didn`t thin kit was possible to get bored of fireforks, but after 25 min we decided to head back to the hotel.

An early morning continental breakfast had me laughing at some very rude couple who were complaining about their eggs. As 14 of us cyclists though they were good, maybe a little greasy..so you would think this American couple would have loved them..but nope they decided to be a pain in the a**. So I got some of the Canadian team to fill out the review form saying everything was satasfying...This couple I could have laughed at all day.

We then headed out for an awesome MTB ride on some local trails, with the sun shining and a great group of people it was turning into a great day. We then packed up and headed for Windham.


We arrived to an absolutely hotel. Haven`t been to a place so cool before. All the building are from the late 1800`s early 1900`s. With catered breakfasts and dinners, river, pool, mini put,
outdoor bands, pool table, and movie nights! I`ll get some nice pictures the next couple days!
