Day 3 Sudbury/Capreol-Timmins

 Early to bed and early to rise and a quick breakfast at the Sudbury Super 8 and we were off!  Quick refuel in Capreol and soon found our first section of gravel roads that were the widest gravel roads I have ever ridden. These bikes are made for this kind of travel. Took our time with some stops to Don on and off rain gear due to mutha nature being her difficult self. Not a lot of scenery other than the occasional glimpse of a river that we snaked beside over and beside for a good portion of the ride.  So much forest

So one would think…..300 km of riding gravel is fun you say?  Well yes…..yes it is….this who know…know. After a time you realize that all of that self talk just goes away and you become immersed in the experience…this…THIS is the magic. 


About 6 hours later….we are in no rush…we rolled into Timmins and b lined it to the Comfort Inn. Front desk gave us a friendly warning to strip everything valuable from our bikes as they have issues with theft…..great….unpacked as instructed and found the closest lcbo and burrito spot. Belly full and after some chatter chillin with a whisky and looking forward to the next FULL pull tomorrow to Thessalon. A solid 400 plus k. Early to bed and early to rise rinse and repeat.  Hoping for some sweet scenery along the way.
