The terrain today was very tough for cycling but being the cycling beasts that we are we had no problems. There were many steep climbs but they were followed by the greatest downhills of the trip and I think we beat our speed record for the trip. We hit 64.4kmph which is so much fun and I feel we could go faster no problem. As it was a long tough ride I can't remember too much about it I'm afraid. I will have to start writing more extensive notes after each days ride.
We arrived at the provincial park camp ground at around 9ish. We feel cheated though as it is 23 dollars for the night, which is a lot when all we have time to do is to put our tent up quickly make some food and have a shower then crash out. Also when you are leaving at 6 or 7 in the morning it hardly feels worth the expense. I think we have had enough of campsites for a while so we will hopefully start camping where ever we can put our tent up. At the campsite I did meet a guy who is cycling across Canada on a tandem bike with his son. they aren't doing the trip in one go but who can blame them as it must be a nightmare on a tandem.
