Wednesday. Septmeber 8. Day 40.

Celebration filled the air as we reached our half way mark! 900km done on the trip to thus far and we congratulated ourselves by corking a bottle of non alcoholic Champaign – much like race cars drivers do...

We initially thought we would reach our half way marker on day 45 as the total days of our trip is set at 90 days but it seems that we are a bit ahead of schedule. We’re not complaining though.

The road was standard, not to smooth and not to rough but the wind was against Puddy again, making the skating a bit tough. This however did nothing to sway the good mood Puddy found himself in.

This leg of the tour also saw the first run in with the law. Metro cops pulled us over.

Fortunately we were on the right side of the justice system and they let us off with a smile.

The humidity is rising and we can feel it as our shirts are slowly starting to stick to our backs. The scenery is becoming a lot greener as we approach the coast (only 200km’s to go to P.E.).

Our next stop is Cookhouse. Aprox 30km’s from Craddock. What a great day on the SFC 2010 trip. Halfway mark reached, top speed of 34km/h averaging 18km/h with a distance of 29km’s travelled!

Big thanks to all our main sponsors who have supported us up until now. Shoprite Checkers, DVS, VERB, Revolution, SkullCandy and Stix & Stones, and never forgetting the cause: SOS CHILDRENS VILLIAGES.

Until tomorrow.
