Tracadie to Kouchibouguac. 128 of 2037 km. The Auberge Centre-Ville was convenient for us because it had a front room with some kitchen facilities and 2 small bedrooms. We took one and the bikes took the other. With the facilities, we were able to buy supper in the deli section of Super Store and have lots of excellent Greek salad.
The ride into Miramichi was pleasant with just a bit of a headwind. We encountered several road repair projects but they delayed us only a bit. After Miramichi we had a change of direction and benefited from the tailwind for 3 hours. Then the wind changed direction and was into our faces for the last hour. The locals were very good to us cyclists. Various people waved and tooted their horns. When we stopped for a break a woman came back in her car to see if we were having bike problems. The Acadiens are very nice and helpful people. They are also very proud of their roots as evidenced by the number of Acadien flags.
