Day 83: Sault Ste. Marie to Spragge
I was up early today. Andre, the owner of Velorution, came by at about 6:00 AM. He said that they have had problems with their neighbour soliciting people. Sure enough, when I left she came by and told me all about Falun Gong. I followed the route out of town recommended by Velorution. It avoided the divided highway (which was likely illegal to cycle on) and replaced it with nice quiet roads. All but 1 km of the roads were paved.
It was a beautiful day for cycling. It was sunny, the temperature was in the low twenties and there was a good tailwind all day long.
I was looking for a KOA campground around Spragge, but it turns out that it has been replaced by a private campground. I stayed at the Serpent River Campground ($28). If all goes well, I'll be back home in about a week.
End point:
