The day we learn about train tours

In the light of dawn we packed up our tent and then learned that A&W has surprisingly good breakfasts!

Gerald’s breakfast at A & W
Amelia’s breakfast at A & W. These meals helped us go 80 km’s before having lunch. It was an awesome way to start the day

Our stomachs satisfied, we made a quick detour before departing to photograph the talk of the small town, the Red Apple building where the roof had spontaneously (and mysteriously) collapsed.

Big news in Assiniboine, SK, roof collapsed on the Red Apple building. Details are not known as to the cause

The windmills waved, cows curiously creeped and the wind whistled past our ears—in the wrong direction…

We had to fight the wind again today. Thankfully, it wasn’t blowing too strong.

Our morning meal (and some snacks) sustained us until we reached Ogema 80kms later. There we discovered the town offers tours on a train and Gerald got an idea about how to celebrate his upcoming wedding anniversary.

After 138 km’s, we arrived in the very small town of Trossachs. Here we prepared hot water for a low-prep packaged meal and set up our tent behind a play structure.

Making supper

We spent 9 hours and 22 minutes on our bikes today. Making for our longest day of riding yet.

Sore and snoring,

Gerald and Amelia
