After that, I'm not really sure where we went. I was just following Dan and trusting that he would get me back into the city at some point. We did end up around antler lake, which is where the black part of our day occurred. We were in a residental area near the lake and the road was pretty windy. I came around this one corner and Dan was in the ditch. He was mostly o.k. (just a bit of road rash) and the bike was mostly o.k. (a few more scratches than before, and a bent brake lever), but it was pretty scary. No one's really sure exactly what happened, but we're pretty sure he took the corner too fast and didn't make it. But we re-grouped and carried on our way.
We pretty much came back into town at that point. We did stop at a little antique shop and looked around. We thought there was a tea shop there, but it was closed. So after that we went to Denny's for lunch with Russ' family. I had a really great time.
After lunch, Russ went home and Dan and I just hung around town. We headed over to West Edmonton Mall to do a little bit of shopping. We were there until about dinner, where we went over to Red Robins for dinner with Jason and then over to South Edmonton Common for a movie.
When the movie was done, Dan and I were sitting in the parking lot comparing bikes. We decided to switch for a little ride. It was just back to my hotel, but its always interesting to ride someone elses bike and compare it to your own. So that was pretty much my day. All in all it was really great (other than the black cloud).
