Day 1: August 28, 2000. |

Here's my Dad with my bike, just before I left at around 7:45 in the morning. I have not yet put the saddle bags on the bike. They would prove to be quite heavy. They also alter the bike's handling more than you might think. |

Here are some people sea-doing in a river only 1 km or so East of Oshawa, in the mid-morning. seemed like an odd but nice scene, so I took the picture. Hey, anything for a quick break. |

Here's an abandoned church in Wesleyville, about 30 km west of Port Hope. I was getting pretty hungry. No food here, but in absence of that, at least it was a nice place to rest! |

Here is the Border of Colborne. I got here shortly after 5 p.m. after riding approximately 16 km for the day. The Bed + Breakfast (The Treasure House) was very very nice. However, I did not sleep well because i was extremely stiff and sore, which made it very hard to be comfortable. Furthermore, I was woken up several times by noisy trains. Long story short: I started day two feeling very lousy and having gotten only 3 or 4 hours of sleep. Which is something less than optimal. |
