Bike Trip to Continue!

Hello everyone!
Although our break was longer than expected, we are now returning to Thunder Bay today to resume our trip across the country! We're set to start cycling again tomorrow - with all three of us wondering whether what 10 days without any exercise at all and certainly no cycling will have in store for us.
We have a new addition to our team for a little bit as well: John Geale - Katie's dad - is flying up with us and will act as a support vehicle through some of the northern ontario roads.
Leah also has a set of improved wrists! :-) i.e. she has wrist braces to help reduce the irritation to her ulnar and possibly median nerve as well.
We are looking forward to returning to cycling and are confident that these two changes will aid us for a safe and healthy journey.

This is so strange! I'm in Nipigon, ON (an hour and a half by car East of Thunder Bay) right now and have been since Tuesday night. I'm sure you passed by on the highway while I was doing some field work in the area. I thought of you and had to check to see where you were. That's great. I hope you're having a good time, I can't believe how far you've come already!
