Ride for Resilience: 7500km for Debby & our Nurses

`I am so sorry Judah'. It's fallen to me to be the chief navigator of this dynamic duo and, I think it's fair to say, our routing has generally been faultless. But twice now I've apologised to Judah for leading us astray. Once, on the second day, when I rode us North for an half-hour when I thought we were headed East! We had to ride back. But the second time was today, and it was much worse. Sometimes I trust the routing software, and sometimes I ignore it. This time I trusted it as it suggested an unpaved route alongside the highway, as we had been haunted by intense traffic all day with bad shoulders to boot. The off-highway route was peaceful and lovely through North Bay, then it felt remote but doable, then we came across a warning sign saying the dirt road through the bush was not maintained, and we were to use it at our own risk. I dared not get out the camera for the worst of it - where we waded our bikes through shin deep murky water while being swarmed by bugs, but a couple pictures are above. We camped the night before, but thankfully had booked a motel for that evening because there was no campsite at our destination for distance. We really needed it to recover! They even opened up their restaurant just for us the next morning!Okumaya devam et
