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.

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.

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.
