An Ottawa family determined to spend the summer in their home province biked more than 1,000 kilometres to New Brunswick. Laurie Clifford, Steve Mongrain and their 14-year-old son Alexander Mongrain made the 1,042-kilometre journey from Ottawa to New Mills on Chaleur Bay in 15 days. (Laurie Clifford/Facebook)A Dalhousie native, Clifford moved to Ottawa 30 years ago but says New Brunswick has always been home, and she normally visits with her family every year. The family doesn't own a car, and when the pandemic restricted them from travelling home last year, her son suggested they bike. (Laurie Clifford/Facebook)The family did stop to play tourist along the way whenever they spotted a nice coastline or attraction.
