Bridge to New Brunswick June 17

 Today we rode 26 miles to the Confederation Bridge, where we were shuttled across the eight mile span connecting Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick. We then got back on our bikes and rode 22 miles along the coast to a motel right on the beach outside Port Elgin. It’s a bit windy and chilly to hike on the beach, but the view is lovely.
