Last minute details......

The list is getting shorter - just a few things to attend to yet before departure. Having a late night departure gives you another day to finish what needs to be done. This way I am home yet for my mother's 87th birthday - she will be in bed way before we head out of Toronto airport. There will be another blog up and running that will be more generic in terms of everyone being able to post on it so will not be as personal as this one. That will be the address that the friends and family of the "Group of 16" will leave for those who want to follow us. The address for that one is http://cyclingeurope2010.blogspot.com - we just hope that wireless access is available all over Europe....
I did get out for a short ride this morning - thought my chiropractor's appointment was for noon - it was at 10:15 instead so had to do a quick ride. Joe says he can wait until tomorrow to pack up the bikes so will do another ride yet tomorrow morning. Adrian did buy a new bike so him and Joe went out for a good ride this morning. Adrian has become stiff competition for Joe going up those hills - Joe used to be faster up those hills....

We all used to be faster going up those hills. Joe is just getting older. I'm climbing a 12% 1 km long hill a couple times a week to train for the Whistler GranFondo (Vancouver-Whistler) and a young pup of a girl literally whizzes by me. Anyway, wishing you a grand and safe trip...Bert
