So here we sit in Baie St. Paul eating excessively and resting. Yesterday was a marathon day with 15% - !6% climbs and decents of up to 80KPH on 19% downhills. We now understand why there were no other riders on this particular route.
We are now one day from Quebec City with five days to Pete`s after that. The Quebec campgrounds are interesting to put it mildly. The campground population cruise through the facility visiting, exibiting there speedo`s and drinking profound amounts of the grape, while all the while staring at us as though we were a little weird´...
Bikes and participants are holding together remarkably well. In truth, the bikes are holding up much better than the participants.
George and I would like to once again thank Petie for paying attention in French class. There is nothing more humbling than having someone address you at length and not understanding a word...now what do I do (can`t make the darn question mark work)
Sounds like you are having a blast. At 80kph the bugs have trouble getting you. Glad the bikes are holding up, in a small way I feel like I am there with you. Keep up the French lessons. Looking forward to your next post.
