Val David

 A.T. and Ruth took the EXO train train to St Jerome, and after an obligatory stop at the cafe, headed north on the P'tit Train du Nord trail.

We made some short stops at the Piedmont outdoor photo exhibit.

Along with some rest stops at the former train stations...

Finally reaching the lunch destination at Val David...

According to his odometer, Val David was at the 45 km mark of the trip.  A.T. revealed to Ruth his secret desire to improve his Eddington number and asked her if she wanted to ride an additional 5 km North before turning around.  Ruth wisely declined and the two parted directions on the return leg.

Ruth headed South at Val David:

The way North at Val David:

Upon hitting the 50 km mark on his odometer, (47 km on the trail marker) A.T. felt the number was respectable enough to mark on his Eddington number spreadsheet and turned South trying to catch up to Ruth.

However Ruth was too fast to be caught, A.T. pedaled as hard as he could back to St Jerome where he found Ruth waiting for him.  Exhausted the fell sound asleep on the train.
