Cycling from Burlington Campground to Standish-Hickey

Today was a relatively easy day cycling between Burlington campground and Standish-Hickey. Little did I know what the next few days had in store for me!

Cycling to Standish-Hickey

(Blog post written October 12th 2009)

Nothing exceptional to report today. I passed through Gaberville which had a lot of genetic misfits, and an RV tried to run me off the road later on. Same old, same old.

I made Standish-Hickey in good time, and the Canadian couple were not far behind. People have been warning all day that a bad weather front will hit soon, so I had stocked up on food, including stuff I don’t have to cook should I get stuck in the tent.

The campground also has a readily available power socket nearby, so I was able to watch films. I planned to take the following day off to sit the storm out, and had my sponge on stand by, as this was going to be a real test for the tent!
