Even though there is still ice on the shoreline of the Big Lake in the Brimley area, the sun was shining and the temps were warming up a bit, so Brenda Leigh took her mountain bike out over the weekend and spent the day riding, picking some rocks and watching the ice heaving and calving along the way. You can see the big ice chunks in her photos here today. Brenda said it was pretty cool to see this happening in Lake Superior when those mountains of ice were breaking off from the edges. She wished she had her video going when it was happening, but alas that wasn’t to be.

Instead we have a much smaller ice formation from the I Love Sault Ste. Marie Facebook page, with a seagull floating on it and then taking off in flight. Nothing “earth-shattering”, but pretty neat to see.

We have the same "backpack" on our bikes...used for many years now...first time we have seen on another bike!

Sweet stuff!

Hi
The bike and the lake ice make an interesting
contrast. I remember a few years ago pictures on
TV of kayaks and beach-goers, along with ice
floes, near Marquette around Memorial Day.

How outstanding is that!!

Bikes and Ice.

I used to travel to Finland quite a bit for business before I retired. I was amazed at the number of people of all ages that rode bicycles all Winter.
