I moved quickly to get my stuff out of the tent and into the truck. Once my tent was packed away I made my sandwiches and ate breakfast at the same time.
At 7:45 Matt, Duncan, and I headed to Moncton. It wasn't on the cue sheet but I had arranged the day before to get a replacement wheel under warranty at Mike's Bike Shop. Matt needed to have his bottom bracket looked at and Duncan makes a point of going to every bike shop that we are near.
It rained on and off for the whole morning. It wasn't a lot but enough to be wet. Not cold though. We took a two breaks at 30 and 60 km. google maps had the wrong location for the bike shop so we took a little extra time to find the new location.
The bike shop took my bike into the shop immediately. I had called them yesterday and they had the new wheel ready to go. They also cleaned it and adjusted the derailures. We are on a 9 day stretch without a break so I better do it now.
After the bike shop we headed back on route to the campsite. Matty got a flat and he got separated from Duncan and I. Later on after Duncan went ahead I met up with Matt again and we rode the rest of the away together.
The campsite was at a provincial park. The site was on the shores of the Northumberland Straight. The sunset was stunning. A lot of us lined up our chairs to get a front row seat. The sun was bright pink as it touched the horizon. After the sun had set the clouds made some very nice patterns.
Everyone has to leave camp by 7 at get s shuttle to PEI tomorrow.
