30 miles Port McNeil - Port Hardy




Just a short ride today.  When we woke up in the morning Chris hitched a ride back to Woss to get our missing tent stakes which he retrieved successfully!  When we got to Port Hardy did laundry again since a lot of our clothes were wet and we didn't want them to mold.  Met an American-Canadian draft dodger from Vietnam who was registering to vote for the first time in his life for our election.  So far it seems that lots of the people we encounter on our way are very excited about this election.  Oh!  And I saw a bear today!  He was a black bear, really close to the edge of the road, but was much more concerned with eating grass and berries than bothering with cyclists.  Set up camp right next to the ferry.  Already got our tickets so we just have to wake up in time!
