Day 84, Stone House Motel, Truro, 102 km.

Three drowned rats from yesterday's tough ride decided to wuss out and travel in the RV today. Good thing we did. The four who actually cycled here were assaulted by ferocious headwinds and lots of hills. They arrived exhausted but triumphant here in Truro. We, on the other hand enjoyed the sunshine out the window of the RV, saving ourselves for the final push tomorrow into Halifax.

We are seven now because Yvonne left us yesterday to travel solo to St. John's. She is very strong and is looking forward to being able to go at her own speed and for her own distance each day.

Tonight we celebrated the end of yet another province with our usual cake and one candle for each province down.

In case people are interested, the cyclists today were Ute and Jim, Adele and Pat. Congratulations to them. Submitted by Carol
