A wonderful 26 mile bicycle ride today along the eastern shore of Lake Champlain. Avoiding pets, leashes, distracted walkers and superspeed cyclists made downtown Burlington a challenge for Karen & me, but the suburban and causeway sections were very beautiful and pleasant. And we stopped for a terrific "Creamee" enroute!

| The lakeside views were captivating |
 |
| Karen and I really enjoyed the suburban sections of this ride, including this spot just north of downtown Burlington. Click for panoramas, Here |
 |
| The end of the causeway is circled 2 miles away. The total length pedaled on the causeway was 2.7 miles each way for a total of 5.4 miles. |

 |
| The opposite end of the causeway is circled, 2.7 miles away. There is a bike ferry that usually runs from the floating pier, below the red circle, for crossing the Gap to Grand Isle, but it wasn't running (COVID-19?) |
 |
| Bitter end of the causeway. I saw a few sailboats, but mostly powerboats. I didn't see your former sailboat, Jerry. ⛵😞 Click Here for panoramas. |

| We celebrated our wonderful ride with a "Creamee!" |
