WE DID IT! 109 days and 7817 km of pedalling later, we are in St. John's, Newfoundland.
Today's r

ide was along the coast of the Avalon penninsula and then over the top into S

t. John's. We arrived at about 2:30 and had some nice gentleman take our picture down on the pier at the Harbourside Park. Then we pedalled over to Quidi Vidi Cove for a libation. The lady at the brewery was so impressed with our story she gave us half a dozen free beer as a prize!
The right hand photo is of the Quidi Vidi brewery. The other photo is the view from our B&B, "The Roses."

We still have a bit more pedalling to do - 17 km out to Cape Spear. And, of course, we are going to do the tourist thing around St. John's for a few days before heading out. NO, we aren't pedalling - we'll be flying back.
If I get a chance, I'll put up some more photos of St. John's.
See you.

Hi Greg and Laura,
Congratulations!! we are looking forward to hearing all your stories and your adventures when you return to Vancouver Island.
Safe return,
Julie and Ian
Woooo hooooooo!!!!! Way to go Greg, Laura & Leddy!!!! Looking forward to seeing you when you get back. I'm still unemployed and will have lots of time to hear the stories. Just might not be able to afford the ferry over to Nanoose... :P
Congrats!
Strike up the "Band" you did it!!!....
I have really enjoyed my armchair trip across Canada with you. Have friends that will be in St.John's in a few days after they visit Iceland & Greenland...on the Crown Princess cruise ship...they aren't quite as energetic or hardy as all of you were.
Have a relaxing trip home you've earned it!!!

I have been following your journey from the start and so impressed with what you and your team have achieved. While you were away the market went into the dumper - but you've probaly spent about 10 bucks a day so who cares. Let's celebrate when you get back to town.
