Stop #1 - Grimsby (8:36)

The first pit stop of the day is at a place called the Rock Chapel in Grimsby.

[Added later that evening]

Pit stops tend to be a bit crazy. They're usually open areas at the side of the road (e.g. church lots, conservation areas, schools, etc.). As you approach the pit stop, there are folks who want to stop and refuel, get water or use the washroom; others want to continue on. It's amazing that there weren't accidents, but everyone did a great job of watching out for each other. I've added a couple of shots from Rock Chapel.





[End of added text]

Still overcast but dry. On the way out of Hamilton, we rode along a road at the edge of the mountain with a breathtaking view of the lake. Steely bright sky to the west (a good sign?).

So far so good. Still have a seat (:->) and I'm starting to loosen up a bit.
