September 28, 2008 “All the way to Pontiac”
(By René)
For René the name Pontiac stands for the sound of a big V8-engine from this American car. A history of carraces goes to his head.
After the slaughter of the new Velosolexes, is the new challenge for René not to peddle to much today. Yesterday he destroyed a engine within 100 yards! But today he wouldn't be Lance Armstrong, and stay off of the peddles. Just tjop away really relaxed.
After a proper American breakfast with just sweet stuff, some repairs had to be done.
We planned to drive at 08:45, so were on our way a 10:15.
This first day we saw the Gemini Grant, and we went on to Pontiac. We had a bear and a good dinner in the 'Old Log Cabin Inn'.
In the evening we had to do some repairs, and than early to bed for the ride of tomorrow. We have days of 230 and 270 kilometers ahead of us.
