Today we headed north to Beeton where Chris and I (although some of this may read as if Leah is typing, she’s not) went for a ride through the hills of New Tecumseth. It was a great ride fill with challenging climbs, some fast descents, and lots of open roads. I reached a peak speed of 69.0km/h and thought I was really moving until Chris went steaming past me. I think his 60 extra pounds helped his downhill speed – while my lighter weight helped me climb quicker… until we passed the first hour mark. That’s normally where my patience dies when riding the city streets so my endurance is not geared to the longer rides. From that point on, Chris was often waiting for me at the top of hills, and any turns in the course.
All in all it was a great day in the saddle and I look forward to our next stage in the Tour.
