So far we have cycled 4500km. From Kelowna BC to Quebec City. Lisa has literally cycled home from British Columbia. We have 1000km left which equals roughly about 10 biking days depending on this heat…Crazy!!
We are now carrying Paniers on our bikes and are completely on our own! Very exciting. And scary. But its definitely an empowering feeling and has completely changed the dynamic of the trip. Instead of having a campsite in mind, as John always would, we arrive at the city borders and have to ride through insane traffic to get to city center and then attempt to find somewhere affordable to stay. Yesterday we witnessed another group of cyclists escape death in Quebec City by a couple of inches. At the end of 8 hours in 45 degree heat plus humidity…you have to try and stay on the ball to get through the city! Scary stuff.
All is well though…Quebec city is the last big city we will hit until Halifax. We cannot believe that there are only 10 more days left to this insane endeavor!! Wish us luck and pray for rain…we need it!!
