Day 54/August 22 – London to Hamilton – 121km

So, I was on sweep today. I didn’t do it too long ago, but I switched places with Matt Zantingh so he could go see his fiancé in Woodstock. Matt thanx for the switch – your sweep team is so fun!

First of all, this morning we had a bit of a late start because Bob lost his shoes, it’s a bit of a funny story. Bob loaded the gear truck in his sandhals, and when it was all over – his shoes were not where he had once had them. We asked around Bert said he thought he saw Walter with them. We called Walter (one of the SAG drivers) he said “yeah I saw them. I put them in a bag. Jake Prins’ bag maybe?” So there went Bob diving into the fully loaded gear truck looking for the bag that had Jake Prins’ name on it – sure enough his shoes were inside. Oh man, that was funny. This first picture is of the filled gear truck with my good friend bobby brown stuck behind all the luggage.

We had a few church stops today – one at Ingersol CRC where my good friend Sarah Zomer is from. Then a lunch stop in Woodstock. On the way to Woodstock I got to see Lynn again, yay! At Woodstock I met my friend Ben Bentum’s dad. That was cool – dutch bingo evermore present in Canada, that’s for sure.

We biked to Redeemer College today – they welcomed us with an amazing dinner and great refreshments. Thanks so much!
