Into the cliffs

On July 26, we rode 36 miles from Mont St. Pierre to Grand Vallee.  The first 26 miles were the easy riding, hugging the coast, that has spoiled us so far on this trip.  The final ten miles were quite another story.  Instead of riding around the base of the cliffs, we went over or through them, with some very steep hills.  I've always contended that it is mind over matter when going up hills, but on these hills,  matter won, as I hopped off my bike and walked occasionally, at about the same speed I had been riding.

We are still on the coast, feeling invincible.

Today's lighthouse looks a little tired.

After the hills!

Nice view from our motel.
