Day 40 - Port Huron, MI, USA to London, Ontario, Canada

WHAA HOO, new country, EH.

Eighty six miles, about 700 feet of elevation gain.

Kind of a fun ride today.  Wind was certainly a factor, a major helping factor.

We began our ride today, immediately going over the Blue Water Bridge.  As a matter of fact, they closed the bride for us, that is the only safe way for us to get across.  Here are some clips:








There are two sets of finger joints on the bridge; the gaps are so big, we had to get off the bikes and walk them across the joints.  And some folks still got their bike tires caught in the joints:


During the ride, there was some construction and the leaders pulled us aside while we waited for them to figure out the rerouting.  Someone pointed out a pear tree:


We also had to wait for a train today, we waited for about a half hour and then they finally rerouted us.  This reroute added about 3 miles to our ride today.
