ATLANTIC CANADA CYCLING, NEWFOUNDLAND, PISTOLET BAY

SUMMER 2010


A CLASSIC NEWFOUNDLAND BOXTOP
St Barbe to Pistolet Provincial Park and more.


Today we will cut across the barrens of the top of the northern peninsula. The seemingly daunting scheduled 140km ride was actually great fun with a serious tailwind aiding us all. None to be seen, but this desolate area to us, is home to a sizable herd of caribou.

 The reasonably mild temps made the going good.


                                        Target practise




 Random postings by the Atlantic Canada staff never left anyone feeling alone.


Not sure how many thousand moose there are in NFL/L, but saw many. 


Have been on the road now and for over a week, no Mc'Donnies, stoplights, the above, .....
Beautiful scenery for what's here and not.

 Back on water at the other side. With having put my required 140k's in, I opted for a little side seeing.
Onion Cove and another 25K's to get my "CENTURY' (100 miles)


A tomb with a view.

Model model home and more. 

 This was one of my scheduled motel stays.

 Might be here soon. Burnt Cove Cabins

The supported service dropped off and picked up your bags from arranged stays.
Heading out next morning.
