We set off at sunrise after 7, in clear weather at 0 degrees, but the sun quickly warmed us up. We rode 10 km on the main road at a good pace, which) got the heart going. Not long after we turned off NH11, we were on small country roads in active farming country. Today was Saturday, and there were lots of people in the fields, mostly brightly dressed women, and there were lots of kids who would drop whatever they were doing to "hello" us.
We rode through the most prosperous farming to Date: tomatoes, eggplants, wheat, canola and rice. Several fields were irritated, and everything looked green.
It was a pleasant 90km ride on generally good roads. Lots of photo ops, including a farmer fertilizing his crop by hand from a bucket. It reminded me of Saskatchewan potash, but this fertilizer was white.
