Back to "normal" today - river (now the ocean) on the left, wind at our backs. Left quality inn, after free mediocre (but better than expected) breakfast and after a quick spin through matane, back cruising on 132. Fast riding with the ocean right alongside most of the morning. We had expected the hills to start today, but even the 8-10% climbs breezed by. We beat the sag crew to Les machins so got a decent 2nd breakfast at a small diner. Except for 2 short stretches, nice shoulder on the road today and spectacular views as we did the occasional climb. 2pm arrival at modern cie hotel, with the prospect of a long day with real hills tomorrow. Everyone clambering to drive in the afternoon. Nice dinner at micro brasserie, where the boys drank 4 beers, while the girls got the premium patio table. 57 miles.
