Body is still very tired and does not have the extra energy to put any effort into the ride. This meant another slow day even though the hills were not bad and we had a tailwind to start. Forgot to mention in yesterdays journal that an OPP Officer (Ontario Provincial Police, RCMP are only used in special circumstances in Ontario) had stopped by to chat while I was having a snack and as others were coming along they would comment "Did you get stopped for speeding?". Today I had a better encounter with an OPP Officer when one that was pulled over along the road asked me, as I was riding by, if I had a camera with me. It was then that I saw the moose about 75ms in the marsh behind him and thanked him for the heads up. Glad I had my long lens with me today. Arriving in camp tonight was a bit unique in that about a kilometer from the camp entrance I hit a cool air mass that dropped the temperature 10 degrees and created a fog to ride through.
