Leg Work Today



The highest town in Québec is St Malo, less than an hour's drive from where I live. To look at the area, it's difficult to believe you are as high as you are. The land seems relatively flat and rolling. To really have a better idea, get on your bike...


Suddenly the reality of the place comes home. Those rolling hills seem to last forever. The open vistas are wind generators that somehow seem to always twist around to face you. Our roughly 40 kms peddle today turned out to be quite the leg workout.

Mchael, like you I enjoy cycling as it is very complimentary to kayaking. I guess it's not possible in your winter though!

Please explain how the wind was in our faces most of the way on a circular route! We do live in a lovely area. SJM
