Canada, Eh?




Roadside breakstop



Fields of color in North Dakota.

In Canada right now, taking a short cut across the top of the great lakes after pedalling across the upper peninsula of Michigan. We've been riding on the Trans-Canada Highway, which has NO shoulder whatsoever. Also, being the trans-canada highway, trucks and other traffic zoom by continuously. To complicate matters, it's rained the past two days.
We finally got off the TransCanada highway and headed south on Manitoulin Island. The 40 miles on the island were rolling farmland. We'll take a ferry back to the mainland and head south back to the border and Buffalo, NY.

Yeah Bryan!
So excited to see your update. Sounds like you guys are chugging along. THe Canada Highway sounds tough. I hung out With my cuz Eric and he said it was the most challenging part of his trip because of headwind and No Shoulders.
You guys rock!

I'm on my Dad's moto heading to the Grand Titans.
Thinking of you. Sending good energy to ya to stay safe on those scary roads ~

Buen viaje
