I set off this morning at 7:45 a.m. Hot, sunny and a Tail Wind! Perfect riding conditions. I am still on the Trans-Canada Highway. After travelling 20 km. my rear tire went flat. I called in a specialist! He comes complete with an Airstream trailer and a weiner dog! He had me back on the road within 45 minutes. Lots of carnage on the road today. I saw a dead moose, a dead deer, a dead skunk, a dead raccoon, a dead porcupine and 2 dead snakes! I saw a little garter snake, slithering on to the shoulder and I told him, if he went much farther he wouldn't live much longer! Our best find of the day was a cowboy, checking on the herd. I stopped for lunch with Brian at Wapella. After lunch the wind had shifted across the bike again from the north/west. You could see the wind waves in the prairie grass. We made it to Moosomin by 1:30 p.m. and the temperature was 25 degrees. Not long after we arrived, Bev and Martin cycled in and we had coffee at the Witches Brew, together. Today I cycled 125 km.
Go Annie Go!
