Maxine & Dave

I can't believe how far you've gone since leaving Ottawa. Seems like only a short while ago that you were here! Hope the gear changer has held up?

From your photos, I can see why you were happy to leave Ontario roads. Until you pointed it out, I had never noticed that roads here have gravel hard shoulders. Definitely not very bicycle friendly!

Safe trip home!!
