Aside from one summit to climb, today was going to be mostly downhill, and I was looking forward to the leisurely ride following the heavy climbing of yesterday. What I wasn't anticipating was how steep most of it would be. I ended up descending 500m over the course of the day, and one stretch pushed my speed to a trip high of 67.3km/hr - which is a VERY uncomfortable speed on a heavy bike with a lot of gear. I was convinced I'd hit a pothole or a stone in the road and that would be it.
Thankfully the ride was uneventful with stunning landscape, and I have great overnight weather for camping in Bromley Rock Provincial Park.
