2024 Maine to Peoria, Illinois, Bicycle Trip through Canada--Epilogue. August 29 to September 14 2024

       After spending a few days with our son and family and getting to watch our oldest grandson run in a cross-country meet, we headed home. A few days later, Kay located the information about her stolen bike, found the serial number and called the Sault Ste. Marie Ontario Police Service to give them the number, as we didn't have it with us on the trip. When an officer called back, he put the number in their database and said there wasn't a match. Since we hadn't heard anything from them while on the trip, she asked what they had found when they had reviewed the security camera video, and other details of the case. He said the officer who was handling the case was out of the office and would call back on Monday. When Jim got home from work on Monday, we discovered they had called his phone instead of Kay's, The next morning while we were both at work, they tried calling again, so Kay called them back at lunch time. The officer reported, "We found your bike tod...

 Leaving our Warm Showers Hosts’ House  Today it was supposed to rain so we decided to do a smaller day of 37 miles. We did have light rain on-and-off all day; if not light rain then it was cloudy and very humid. Kay had felt a weird sensation in her bicycle seat a couple times when starting out from a stop. When we stopped at a beautiful small park, we discovered that part of Kay’s lawn-chair-like seat was broken. With a combination of hose clamps, strips of a plastic bottle duct-taped together and some nails, Jim was able to make a splint (notice use of medical skill!). So far the repair has worked for 10 miles. With fenders from milk bottles & siding, and now this, Kay’s bike has a menagerie of odd parts holding it together. We got the nails from a maintenance worker for the village of Portneuf, Quebec who showed up to work on a leak in the park’s restrooms. He was a very friendly person who searched his truck for something to help us out after the self-t...

We had a great breakfast with Gary and Debbie and left about 8:30 in the morning.  Today was a day of beautiful flowers, a port with huge number of shipping containers  and downtown Seattle.  We even got to see part of Mt. Rainier when clouds lifted.   We discovered Seattle and surrounding communities have some impressive hills.Jim showed his lack of coordination and fell over on his bike when front wheel got just over edge of sidewalk. Dignity decreased, slight scrape to knee and word used that Grandpa shouldn't use. We are staying with Kit and Jan Flowers, friends from Christian Veterinary Mission, great food and fun conversation. Discovered that just putting in an address correctly and assuming it's a certain city can end  you up in the wrong town and add about 15 miles to your day.  So we discovered legs are in better shape than we thought because we ended up doing 76 miles today. Started in Puya...
