| water front in Sault Ste Marie |
I never get tired of the water front in Sault Ste Marie, and even though this was a day of steady riding, I still took some time to go for a walk.
As
I left the Soo it was sunny and warm but 120 Kms later the story would
change.
I made it to the Agawa Indian
Crafts Store just in the nick of time to miss a huge deluge of rain.
I took shelter in the store and had a coffee
while I waited things out. I wasn’t alone either, pretty much every bike that
was on the highway pulled in – you could not see 5 feet in front of you it was
raining that hard!
We
all got a kick out of reading the tee shirts in this place. They are freaking
hilarious. They have a good selection of biker gear too and I took advantage
and bought some boot covers – mine wore out and plastic bags suck!
After
a two hour wait the rain settled down to a drizzle.
All bundled up in my Froggs
Toggs and new boot covers I had no fear of getting wet. It amazes me how many
riders here in the east know about Froggs Toggs and what great gear they are
and yet very few in the west seem to have any knowledge of them.
I will have to
do a review on these before too much longer!
I
pulled in to the NorWester Best Western just in time for supper. Vi and Dave
met me and we ate at the hotel. The meal was awesome as was our waitress!

After
our meal, we visited for a bit more and then it was time for good byes…I hate
that part.
It will be a while before I get to see these wonderful folks again!
Their beds are very comfortable, the showers have great pressure and pretty much anything you need is either provided or readily available.
Check them out the next time your wandering takes you to Thunder Bay:
