Sheguiandah, ON to Happy Hearts Tent and Trailer Park in Tobermory, ON

The easy day today surely was easy! I slept in but time still went fast. I didn't slip in time to change clothes so I just rode in my sweatpants and plain black shirt which I wore to bed.
The ferry ride was easily the highlight of the day so far (because Caleb and I are finding a skatepark). The greatest entertainment on the ferry was two guys and a girl that knew formal dancing. First it seemed they had no music but they played it off of their phones. William offered his speaker and they used it awhile.

Time: 2hr 40min ish
Trip: 55km ish (not including ferry ride)
Avg: unknown
Max: unknown
My odometer is no longer working, likely just a dead battery.

Just loaded.

Top deck viewing area.

The dancers.

About to head out.

St.-Louis, NB to Murray Beach Provincial Park near Murray Corner, NB

Cold morning. It was so cold! Getting on my bike was a slow motion and the shadows were made of shivers. A blessing came at 17km when I saw my crew's bikes at a Tim Hortons. Caleb gave me hot hot mocha because he didn't like it for some reason. I thoroughly enjoyed having a free hot drink. I felt decent till around 80km when I struggled to sit on my seat due to such discomfort. I "sent it" to the next rest stop at 99km to get of my seat as soon as possible. I sat for part of the next section and then mostly stood for our last 30km. I unclipped my toes and stood on my heels occasionally to variate pressure points. I wasn't looking for many things in particular today but I did find a great abandoned home near the very end of the ride. Pictures and descriptions are below. Tomorrow is a shorter day of under 100km which includes a 15km shuttle ride. The shuttle ride is due to bicycles not being allowed on the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward Island. Trip: 142...

Glacier National Park and the drive

Breakfast consisted of cheap cereal we brought and milk that mom would have been better not knowing the price of. We traveled into the park to do a short hike and decide how to spend the rest of our day. On whim we decided to bike up part of Going-to-the-Sun Road. The road was closed to vehicles but open to bikers and hikers. We were able to bike over 1800ft in elevation and about 10miles before the road was closed to all traffic due to snow removal. On the ride I saw one black bear going up and two on the way down! Eric got excited and convinced the family to go on a two hour guided hike in possibility of seeing a moose. I actually decided to skip out and in due irony as the hike was to John's Lake! Once the family was back I started our drive to go further west. On this drive we wound around mountain roads and happened to pop out in the famous small town of St. Regis, Montana. We got the "best shakes ever," Huckleberry shakes. As you can see here, trees really do...

Atholville, NB to Superior Middle School in Bathurst, NB

I slept so very well in the little shelter. Had it not been for my alarm I would've missed all of getting ready and having breakfast. I was thankful to be dry and packed up dry! Others had to pack up wet tents from overnight rain. The rain stopped for our morning as we got ready. Out on the ride we had a couple of falls. A handful of times we cross rail road tracks and about 7 people fell due to the wetness of either the railroad rail or the rubber fitting paralleling it as a buffer to the roadway. I faired alright and took my day rather easily. At no point did I push myself yet I found my legs just as tired and my butt just as sore. I enjoyed riding one segment of the ride with Fred from Smithers, BC. He listened to some of my tunes and we shared about our lives. The mix of my high and low today was in perspective of receiving a donation. The man was very friendly and so was I to him. Almost as if we were exchging goods I gave him a Sea 5o Sea sticker while he gave me a small do...
