Let's talk about underestimating distance

Just getting to sydney from ny is equal to iowa city. The local bikers
in digby raised their eyebrows when I mentioned gros morne and my
schedule, told me they'd like to get there someday. Guess that means ill
have to explore nova scotias coast on the next trip although I am
wondering about flying back to work the weekend, then flying back up to
my bike. Something to think about. 400 kilometers left today, I should
make sydney by 8pm for the midnight ferry. Hopefully I won't get seasick
while trying to sleep.
Newfoundland is huge. With any luck I can spend a few days there before
rushing back. By now I haven't seen a damn thing, just riding.
Time for another 5 hour leg and the ipod ran out of juice.
