There was (and still is) a lot of snow out there, and the wind came in steady from the North at between 20 and 30 km/h for the whole day.
It was hard and I learned a lot about several things, most of which had to do with riding a bike in winter for more than 12 hours. This was not a commute.
Thanks so much to the organizers and volunteers and to Graham, Kevin, Luke, Mark (and at the end Svetlana) for riding along with me. My dogged inner spirit needed other dogs to keep me going at a few points.
Shortly I will say more about this, I'm just going to take enough time to say it with care (and hopefully with a few more photos).
