Time for my first big Trans Canada Trail (TCT) backpacking adventure with my DIY electric dirtsurfer! I take my inline board on the Trans Canada Trail, picking up where we left off at the southern take-out of Lake Couchiching; and ride the TCT's rail trails all the way to Waubaushene before finally setting up shop in a stealth camp after charging the dirtsurfer's batteries at a local Timmies. Riding this thing takes a HECK of a lot more out of you than you think! It's super sketchy at slow speeds and utterly DESTROYED my legs
