Karl’s new Red Bird bicycle seemed to propel him much faster through Ontario. After leaving Chatham, he travelled to Windsor, took the ferry for Detroit, and started biking on Michigan Avenue, continuing the 285 miles heading straight for Chicago. Before crossing the ferry, Karl had travelled from Nova Scotia over 2,000kms through the Maritimes then completed this leg of the journey from Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec to Windsor, Ontario.
