DAY 3 - ON TO KINGSTON

After an afternoon of doing laundry, a number of the riders met for dinner at Amadeus, a local German restaurant.  Having an early morning departure they turned in early to get ready for Day 4.

Hi had a great ride here to Picton... Very good pace- line riding at 26 kph... Great vistas here in PECounty. Having Pizzas for lunch, only 120 km today, time for laundry and off to America in the AM via Wolf Island Ferry... Some folks getting road weary, normal for day Three... Legs will come back tomorrow. So far, riding dry. Although rain Goddess scared us last night, she opened the tap 15 min post arrival in Trenton. Stopped today at the BLOOMFIELD bicycle Company. Very cool, and helpful people, check out www.bloomfieldbicycle.ca
Next stop is Picton Ferry then, Kingston.  BRuce

In Wellington - Prince Edward County

Our riders have left Trenton at 08:15 this morning and are on their way to Kingston through beautiful Prince Edward County under sunny skies.
Once they arrive in Kingston around 3 PM they will be able to relax a bit this evening and hopefully send me comments and pictures, which I will promptly post, for your reading and viewing pleasure. 

We are so proud of the Tour du Lac riders and what they are accomplishing.  If you know of any one who has yet to pledge, please spread the word and direct them to our web site or obtain a cheque payable to the St. Catharines General Hospital Foundation on their behalf.  Their challenge is gruelling and their cause is worthy.
