17 Days To Departure....

Everyone has been telling me I needed to update the blog so here it is. In the last 2 months lots has happened very little to do with our coming adventure. Preparation has continued, of course, to get away by the end of the month. A bad fall in our bush during Maple Syrup Season resulting in a sore knee and then a badly cut hand has slowed training but not stopped it. (Never thought I would say thank goodness for turbo-trainers).

Our training has now moved outside as the 3 feet of snow went away quickly (too quickly for Maple Syrup Season). Our bikes were missing in action for a period of time when they were in the "shop" for their final tune-up. Two new back wheels later and a complete cleaning and bearing check, they are now ready to go. (Dam near paid for a new bike!!!!) Still need to put the new rubber on them and do some test rides fully loaded. We are "really" looking forward to our coming "adventure" (a whole lot scared as well) and cannot believe it is only 17 days until it begins. Lots of things to wrap up before then!!!!
