Have to say that one of the things about loaded touring...is disciplining oneself nearly daily..to push off early on the bike.

Now, I already get up early to go to work at 5:15 am.

But this morning, it's pushing off on bike at 4:30 am...so that we can catch ferry for Vancouver Island. On one's vacation days..it requires discipline.

However anything to do lots of cycling before noon sun.
