Day 40: Antigonish - Gary Robertson

We passed New Glasgow and landed in Antigonish tonight - 60km up the road!

Little rain - but no wind and we were thrilled to be averaging 25km/h on the day. We're getting into construction season now and New Glasgow wanted nothing to do with us and our bikes. After riding the white line tightrope and trying not to get hit for the first 2 km the cars just waited for us to get out of the way. We weren't popular with rush hour traffic.

We are now above halfway from the equator to the north pole. 

This was about as soaked as we got on the day going in for a break. Glad the cars could see me because it was head down and look 4 feet in front of me for a few hours in the afternoon. 

Since we're ahead now we will be able to take the ferry to Newfoundland tomorrow overnight!
