The hosts at the house we stayed yesterday made an early breakfast of poached eggs on toasted bagels with cheese and ham and fresh tomatoes! Perfect food for a long ride day. We were on really great roads with bike lanes, as well as many bike paths through towns and around busier route interchanges (as we were skirting Montreal by about 25K in an arc much of the day and felt really safe and away from traffic). We travelled from Berthierville to Saint Eustache, which is just north and west of Montreal and passed through lots of pretty communities with views of the rivers in and around Laval, and we've started to see a few fall colours in the trees. We are staying tonight at a very nice new hotel (Imperia) for a very good rate and with a brunch tomorrow morning, which starts at 6AM! That is 12 hours from the time of the writing of this paragraph - now that we are showered from our day of riding, B has just said that we probably should head into Montreal for a night on the town - we both think hanging out here would be just great too - we must be over 50!
