Hey everybody, the public library computer says no e-mail, chat, or games, but mentions nothing about blogs.
Our ride into the downtown was quite eventful. A popped tire for Rainer, a flying pannier for myself, dropped mirror for Mike, and some other inconvient moments did nothing other than give us something to laugh at. We're staying with Rainer's friend Nick who generously put us up for a couple nights. Wicked grassy backyard, nice digs, awesome overall ***just got kicked off the computer haha.
So...we've packed up everything, taken care of all the loose ends in terms of equipment, and Mikey and I tested out the tent which sets up very easily. Everything seems good to go except Adrian just broke his spoke on the way to the bike shop...better now than on the road tomorrow I guess. Still, shitty deal. After re-packing and getting rid of every unnecessary or redundant item, I tried to use my foot to push the cloting compression bag into my pannier. After ripping a huge tear in the top draw string I realized brute force is never the best route, lesson learned. Tonight we're heading to the Keith's brewery for a tour and are gonna cook up some fresh lobster, how Nova Scotian.
Tomorrow we're heading to Truro which is about 120k or so away, which will be our first test in the way of actual bike touring.
