Jason's initial thoughts on the ride

We are all very excited and perhaps a little scared about the daunting task of doing this ride. I have been cycling for a couple hours in the morning before work to get my legs used to cycling. I am a complete and utter novice cycler. I never thought I would try to cycle from Toronto to Montreal, although I have driven the route many times. The last time I drove it (this past weekend), I imagined cycling it. I imagined the head wind, the legs cramping, the steep hills, and the exhaustion closing in on our destination. I also thought about what a wonderful cause this is, and it would all be very worthwhile. I have to admit I am really looking forward to the challenge.
