When I awoke I was met with a windy
and slightly rainy and chilly day. However, I did not mind because I was not
cycling today; rather, today was a day to do chores and relax. I walked to the
laundry mat in Merritt to do some much needed laundry where I met several other
riders there as well. I also cleaned Paula because I had to keep her spick and
span so she could take me across the country with no significant problems.
While walking around Merritt I discovered in was Canada’s country capitol.
There were murals of country artists throughout the town and the laundry mat
was covered in signed photos of country artists, it was interesting to see.
That evening a large group of riders went out for dinner at Coldwater Hotel. At
dinner it became common knowledge to everyone that I had saddle problems and
one of the riders suggested I be nicknamed “Happy Cheeks.” Thankfully that nickname
did not stick. Overall it was a really fun evening and a nice way to get to
know my fellow riders.
