Day 38

Saturday, July 31st
Gravel River to Neys
118km

Shorter day today, but probably the most climbing we've ever done. There were 6 major climbs, with 6 matching decents. It was a lot of fun.

The climbs were actually a lot of fun. They were long, but not overly steep. I “spun” up them in my granny gear, and didn't find them too tough. The downhills were great. My top speed was 70.5km/h, but I was above 65km/h for long stretches on several hills.

We are staying in Neys Provincial Park tonight, which has some very nice showers. (It the little things that make all the difference.) The bugs are out again, but not nearly as bad as last night. I think half of the bugs tonight hitched a ride on our truck from our last site.
