This morning I was looking forward to seeing something I have never seen before. My sister at 6:30 in the morning. I thought this might be picture worthy, of course a picture that would be shared. But to my surprise she looked her normal self. Thank you Dan and Evelyn for getting up early and providing an excellent breakfast.
Starting out at 7:15 was such a pleasure. It felt great to be biking when it was still cool out. Last time I cycled down this road was in 1985. That summer I did a tour around Manitoba.
I was about to discover another interesting part of Manitoba. Bugs, big ones that like stinky old men, and don’t know how to social distance. It did not ruin the ride, it just made it interesting.
This was the first day that all parts of my body were clicking as one. It was like I hit the sweet spot of motion with no pain.
I pulled into Cowan by noon having done 90 km’s. Had lunch and a two hour break before cycling to Minitonas. Got there at 4 and will be staying with Darlene and Byron. Darlene is a cousin to my wife Cheryl.
There may not be an update on Friday as I may not have cell service.
Mileage update for the last two days. Day 5 was 64 km’s. Day 6 was 124 km’s. For a total of 616 km’s for the trip so far.
