DAY THREE, Calgary


Well, today was a mixed bag.  I had a headwind the whole day.  So, 60 miles was slow going for sure.  The rain certainly didn't help matters, but at least it was only drizzling.  The lack of a shoulder in some busyish bits was also not great.  And, since I was headed into the big city of Calgary many of the sights in the beginning were not inspiring. However,  once I got on the Bow River Pathway, it got a whole lot better!  That has been money well spent by Calgary.  Much of the land has been reclaimed from old industrial efforts.  The restoration is incredible.   Pelicans, other birds, and gorgeous greenery everywhere.  Anyway, all together not so bad a day.
