Sarnia, ON to London, ON!

Day 43 Sarnia, ON to London, ON
Distance 130km (I added 19km, original ride was scheduled at 111)
Saddle time 5:24
Avg speed 24
Max speed 50.2
Total ascent 678m
Total descent 601m

I’m sitting in the sunshine outside my tent at London District Christian High School and I am so content.  I had another great day today!  We got up early and ate breakfast with grandma (delicious eggs, oatmeal and fruit), then I biked back to the school and grabbed a couple extra things for lunch, and, as the people I usually ride with weren’t ready re: it was so early, headed out with Gord from Calgary (joined in Grand Rapids for 2 weeks).  We just rode a steady pace into a fairly steady headwind and had a great riding day.  My grandma was waiting with chocolate cookies and a SIGN (!!!!) partway out of Sarnia, so that was really sweet!  I stopped in downtown London for a drink and some perogies with a different group of riders (Gord kept riding in because his wife was meeting him at the high school) and then hooked up with a different group of riders to get to the high school.  All in all another excellent day! 

With Grandma along the route!
