The rain came off and on but the sun showed up in the afternoon.

At about the 25 km mark I started counting the hills, 42 hills. Timo estimated we may have done 10 hills before I started counting. The hills were a great challenge but the down hills were lots of fun. The shoulders were smooth. One of the hills was called the \u201c15 km\u201d hill to give you some idea how challenging they were.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7577.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1391\" src=\"http:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7577.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_7577\" width=\"474\" height=\"313\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1390\" src=\"http:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7600.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_7600\" width=\"474\" height=\"313\" \/><\/a>We had two flats and a tire replacement, all on my bike! Front tire went in the morning at about the 40 km mark and the back tire went just before lunch at about the 100 km with a loud bang. Timo was beside me. He thought someone shot a gun. The side wall of the tire was damaged so had to replace it along with the tube.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/dsc_7611.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1392\" src=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/dsc_7611.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_7611\" width=\"474\" height=\"715\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7614.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1393\" src=\"http:\/\/cycling4water.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/08\/dsc_7614.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_7614\" width=\"474\" height=\"715\" \/><\/a>After lunch we had some great views.
