July 26 - cycling on the way to Drummondville

Most of us were on the road by 6:30 in the morning to beat the rain. Our first stop was in Nicolet to see a unique, modern church. Unfortunately, we arrived too early and the church was not open. We did peer through the doors and got a glimpse of magnificent, colorful stained glass windows. On the way out of town, we stopped to pay tribute at the war memorial. This sculpture of a French soldier was next to the memorial.

Our 65 mile route was affected by strong winds, making pedaling more difficult. The first half of the ride, we viewed farm houses and fields of corn, wheat, and barley.
