Thursday. October 21. Day 83.

Hotel Caledon...

There are only 7 days left of the Skate for Change tour 2010 and we are all buzzing with excitement.






We woke this morning and had a lovely meal at the Caledon Hotel. These guys have gone out of their way to accommodate us. They have sponsored us all accommodation and meals for our stay here and also threw in a massage for each crew member. The service is superb and if you are ever in Caledon you are missing out if you dont spend at least one night there.

We skated into Caledon today. The road surface was pretty good but the weather was a bit fowl. Rainy and cold. We skated to the doorstep of the Hotel where we had some lunch and relaxed for a bit after hitting the road for the second session. It all started well with a sweet downhill from the hotel but took a turn for the worse as we reached the high way were the surface reminded us again of “the road to Mordor.”

Tomorrow we pack up and leave the hotel. A thank you of the highest regards to them for making our stay unforgettable.
