Hey There, We actually had our first warm day of the year. Well, to be more precise, our first warm half-day of the year. It was supposed to be sunny with temperatures up into the mid 20’s and it did in fact reach into the low 20’s but by early afternoon the sky had become overcast and by evening a chilly breeze was blowing. By late evening a cold front came through with howling winds and sideways rain. So, still no sign of spring. We did however go through with our planned motorcycle picnic to Porteau Cove. ‘The Wife’ and I rode down to the Bay where we met up with 5 other bikers and then rode back up to Porteau where we had a nice ‘first group event’ of the season. It was also the first time I’ve lead a ride since before the pandemic hit. It felt kind of good. As the picnic was winding up we could feel the change in the weather as the sky darkened and the air changed so we headed north, they all headed back to the city. We had been home for perhaps half an hour when the storm hit. The storm turned out to be the front end of another atmospheric river in the long line of atmospheric rivers that have been pumping onto the coast since last fall. I assume the other riders all got to their homes just fine.
