Well our run is free!!!

I have not decided on NY PR yet might just crash the river with the Lake George crew. I want to check out Poker runs I have not done yet like maybe The Casino Run in Ottawa and the Montreal Run.

We're on about the same program, only a bit east of Champlain, I think the 100 year avg. for "official" ice out on Winni is 4/22. Who knows what will happen this year?

This was 4/24 last year... my buddy w/ his wife and their 6 mo. twins, (first ever ride for the boys) - first ride of the season for everyone. It was a bit cold, but it felt sooo good to be on the water again!!
