Getting closer to home

Tuesday and Wednesday's rides are getting me closer to home.

Tuesday was a 132 km ride from Ajax to Trenton. It was a longer day, taking from 7:30 to 3:30. The main reason for that was the three church stops along the way. Each church put on some food, including sloppy joes at the second and even olibolen at the third. It's a good thing we are biking so much given the amount of food we are eating. We also eat great at night. We got a touch of rain in the afternoon, but otherwise it was a nice day. We stayed at Trenton Christian School, where I found a nice quite place to sleep.

Wednesday was a 114 ride from Trenton to Kingston, going through Bloomfield and Picton, an area south of the 401, i had never been before. We made a stop at "lake on the mountain" park, where a small lake sits above the bay below. We had to use the ferry to continue on the Loyalist parkway. Another church stop today. About 30 kms from the end, my biking partners, Bonita and Joel, and I stopped for a quick swim. At supper tonight, members from the two Kingston churches brought salad and dessert.

Looking ahead to Friday, I am aiming to bike through Iroquois at 9:30 and Morrisburg at 10. But this is subject to change, depending on departure time, wind, flats and how long I stay at stops. I need to be in Cornwall and ready to leave for the open house at the church for 4pm. We'll see how the day goes.
