We took a day off to rest and rejuvanate after our big shindig in Medicine Hat. We had a great turnout at Echodale!! Thanks everyone for coming, and for those who worked hard to make it possible!
Mark; taking a snooze.
Monday:
WOW! What a day!
We made it to Saskatchewan!
We rode 98 km's to Maple Creek - arrived at 12:30! We had lunch and then said "Let's keep going! We feel great!"
Lo and behold, we rode until 9pm and did an extra 138 km's and made it to SWIFT CURRENT!
Our rapt audience on the road...
We picked up an extra day, and set a personal best for both Vern and Mark!
The only problem? Vern 'bonked' at km 217 (hit a wall and ran out of energy completely), and finished the last 19 km's at turtle speed.
Tired, tired Vern.
Don't plan on doing that again!
But we still made it! And day 19 is in the books.
