WNATV Ride 12 - Sam Dam - Saturday, August 21th, 2010, Sponsored by: JMF Network Services

(Postponed to Sunday, August 22, 2010)

Leader: Joel Falardeau

Tail: George Leuzler

Length: 106 Km

The ride was scheduled for Saturday Aug 21, 2010 but was re-scheduled to Sunday Aug 22 2010 because of the rain. 

Even with the rain 5 people showed for Saturday.  Sunday morning we had 12 people show up for the ride, we waited till

9:20 am before leaving.  We had a little bit of rain in the morning but the ride went ahead regardless.  We stopped at the

first Hunt Camp for quick 15 minute break and moved on to the Blyth Hunt Camp.  We stopped for a 20 minute break at the

Blyth Hunt Camp where the riders enjoyed the view of the lake.  We left to continue at 11:30 am, we arrived at Sand Dam

Road at approximately 12:20 and we stopped for lunch.  We continued on to Noble Lake and we stopped at the Noble Lake

Beach again to admire the view.  Our next stop was at the Tomiko Restaurant where the Corporate Sponsor, JMF Network

Services paid for everybody's snack (Blueberry Pie and Ice Cream).  By the time we finished our snack it was almost 4:00 pm. 

The leader decided to take an alternate trail, we took the Snowmobile trail straight across the Hwy from the Restaurant, and

use the Pipe Line to go back to the parking.  Some of us got brave and took off our Rain suites, and sure enough it started pouring

Rain at approximately 4 Kms before arriving to the Parking area on Riding Stable Rd.  We arrived at 4:55 pm, everyone seemed

to have enjoyed the day.
