21 | The 17th annual
Bridge the Years and Ride the Wall bicycle
event will be based out of the Mission Inn in Cataldo this year. Celebrate the longest day of the year by participating in a non-competitive 13 mile bicycle ride via the historic CCC-Wall Ridge route, a picturesque road that winds along and above the Coeur d'Alene River. This year the course will be reversed. For the first 15 years, this event was hosted by Joe and Rose Mary Peak at their Enaville Resort, but with their passing, the event will now begin and end in their memory at the Mission Inn, 36179 East Canyon Road in Cataldo (Take I-90, Exit 40). As usual, the ride will conclude with a BBQ. Therefore, this year, the first part of the ride is 8 miles on a one-lane, gravel dirt road that is rigorously uphill for about a mile, and later sharply downhill to Enaville. Things calm down as the ride returns downstream to Cataldo beside the Coeur d'Alene River on the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes.

The trouble begins when Gunner’s wife, Clara, decides she also wants to win Miss Walleye Queen, and when Gunner’s estranged twin sister, Trigger shows up to try to win the beauty pageant, things get ugly.
