A great start to the bike rally. All afternoon we watched dark clouds creeping up behind us, but we only had a few drops of rain. Highlights were Mars and Snickers bars at break and having no technical difficulties.

Just a great ride overall! Stu and I kept up a great pace; at 80 km, our average speed was 28.4 km/h. It may have been an even faster ride had we not both had sore knees. Stu's was from cleat position, and mine was from an overstretched hamstring.

Tail winds and a lot of downhills made this a blazingly fast ride. Poor Stu got a flat tire that necessitated a new tire, so we were a bit later than expected arriving in Kingston.
Wed, July 26 109.83 4:01:35 27.2 49.5
Another beautiful day weather-wise, though maybe a touch too hot. We had to help out at lunch, so we were a bit late arriving at camp. We went for a dip in the river when we arrived.

Today's ride was mostly on trails. It rained a bit in the morning but then cleared up and became very very hot. Fast ride, but I faded about 4 km from the end. We had massages at lunch since it was a fast day.
Fri, July 28 103.26 4:24:49 23.4 43.0
The final day. We had lots of time to get to Montreal, so we rode leisurely with our team. Dave and Paul were waiting to meet us at Square Viger.
