Wow! What a great day….and I’m officially no longer cold….temps went up to 32C today.
I didn’t have a super early start from my luxury accommodations…..I didn’t want to leave!!!! Eventually I got up, packed up and headed off. Today was mostly downhill to pincher creek, then mostly flat, but there was still about 400 meters of up. I didn’t have a tail wind which was amazing! Not super strong…but consistent.
I really wasn’t sure how far I would get today….because I met up with Lorraine in Pincher Creek and between visiting and lunch which I normally don’t stop for, I was there just over two hours. With the heat I stopped in Fort Macleod for a drink and ice cream.
Through Lethbridge was scary on the highway….but I got off and it was better. Then it was only another 15 km to Coledale. I’m all set up at the campground….and it’s a 1.8 km walk to dinner….each way.
Incredible views again today….i took lots of photos while I was riding….and the smells….well I think everyone chose today to spread manure on their fields 😂😂😂.
The plan for tomorrow is Bow Island….about 90 km from here. If I want to go farther…I have to make it to Medicine Hat….which might be too far. I’ll see how things go tomorrow.
I love all the texts and posts….thank you. I think that Terry who is watching with my mother….he texted ‘it’s 5:56, where are you going?’ I had just passed Lethbridge at that time!!!! Thanks for watching out for me!!!!

So nice to meet you in Coaldale! See you in Kenora ON! Travel safe!
Yesterday was the first day we hadnt followed you and then the day got away with us so didn’t see you rocket past Lethbridge. There must have been the usual west wind pushing you. Late start, long lunch, coffee break in the afternoon……starting to sound like a union job!! Wow. 107miles. You better slow down or it will be all over and with the rest of the summer to go. Good on ya.
