Day 6: Day Off

Yes another day off, but we couldn't say no to Darch, who is a great guy and such a character. He gave us the option of heading off on another days ride or relaxing at his and Catherines house, going for a mountain bike ride on a nearby trail and ending the day with a good meal and a dip in the hottub. Its a hard life cycling across Canada.
They have plenty of Mountain Bikes and all of the gear, so myself, Darch and Agnes went for a taste of Canadian Mountain Biking. The trail was Intermediate level and so much fun. I fell off once and a tree branch stabbed into my neck, but you have to come away with a scar. Agnes wasn't so keen on the downhill aspect but she did her best and a great afternoon was had. As darch said about Mountain Biking everyone comes away with scratches and bruises but also with a great big smile on their face.
A great day off and we ended it in the hottub.
