We awoke to terrible weather – whipping winds and moderate rain – but the weather apps had warned us of this so we weren’t too freaked out. Also, our morning plan called for a van ride across the province to reach our bike ride start point, and as it turned out, the rain dissipated en route. We still had to contend with wind and gusts, but the ride was do-able and enjoyable.
We started from Bridgetown and rode 18 miles to Annapolis Royal where we had lunch at a café at the town historic gardens. After lunch we pedaled down the peninsula to Victoria Beach (which has a wharf but the beach was underwater at high tide). The wind persisted, which added some challenge to this route of rollers, but it was a fun ride in overcast but warm conditions.
The weather apps tell us that our remaining ride days should be sun-shiny and not-overly-windy. Our guides continue to make adjustments to
optimize our experience – no small feat as the logistics are like a puzzle;
change one piece and all the other pieces need to change too.
Love the still life.
