"Where Doran goeth, so goeth the rain"
Got up and it was drizzling. On our way to Winnipeg, so have a long ride. Poured for an hour, but by the time we got to Moose Jaw, the rain stopped and I was able to get out of the rain gear. Ride to Winnipeg along the Hwy 1 was smooth and easy. Landscape didn't change from when we rode the area in the opposite directions 3 weeks ago. A lot of brilliant yellow canola fields.
Very windy on the ride. Temperature started at 53F or 10C and got up to about 70F.
Staying at our cousins John & Colleen Davies in Winnipeg tonight.
