Blissful Bromont

We have made the trip back to Bromont to meet the rest of the TORQ team who have now arrived in Canada! So the plan is to spend the following week training on the course and finally soaking in some beautiful summer sunshine, it seems the weather has finally turned it on for us!

We are staying in a lodge/retreat which is set in the rolling hills about 10km from the town centre, it is quiet, peaceful and very relaxing!


This is the local 'swimming pool' which is literally a 5 minute stroll from our accommodation. Perfect for an afternoon swim after a hard training session!
















This is our amazing 'bike shed'!!! It has plenty of storage space for the whole team. Generally don't use the front door as they have to pull these open with big ropes, the side door is much easier!!















There are deer everywhere, these ones are regular visitors, they come in and eat the apples that fall to the ground. I'm sure me taking a photo of a deer is similar to a tourist in Australia taking a phot of a kangaroo or even a rabbit!!
















This photo is of myself and one of my team mates Tory before training, the after shot may not have been so clean!
















Katherine one of my team mates trying to get up close and personal with a deer we saw in the forrest.













The countryside is typically beautiful, rolling green hills, lush forrest, and quite county roads to train on!
