On July 9h 1986, 40 years ago today, I cycled from Upsala ON though Thunder Bay and stopped at Pass Lake Ontario.
193km, 8hours 92 minutes, average 19.0, maximum 59,2kmh.
Upsula/17/Kakabeka Falls/17/Thunder Bay/17B/17/Pass lake
Mostly on the dreaded Highway 17, with a bit of respite inside Thunderbay. And passed a venerable site.

Prior to arriving Thunder Bay, one passes the 90° degree of longitude when clocks advance by at least one hour. The plaque along the road 17 is still there and not sure they updated changes to times zones in Yukon and eastern parts of Québec's north shore. From a trip point of view, I was now entering same time zone as the destination of Montréal.
