Day 17 - In Winnipeg until the Solstice

The solstice is Aboriginal Day. The day with the most sunshine of them all. After that the days will get shorter. I think I'll definitely notice. I know I'm late writing this entry, but I've been keeping most of the information about my trip on a Google Map. You can see it here
there isn't much pictures, but at least you can see where I've been. A bike trip across Canada isn't as far as you might think. No wonder Dugald Christie chose it as his preferred mode of continental travel. I'll have to stop and pay my respects when I get close to Sault Ste. Marie.

Day 5 - Calgary

Well I made it into Calgary last night and stayed the night at my cousin's house. I rode 208km last night. Going at this pace I just might make it to the Moses Mayes concert on the 12th. :-)

The ride through the rockies was great and Kicking Horse Pass wasn't too bad. The weird thing that I noticed was that there's this lake west of Calgary and its higher than Rogers Pass.

Tannis is coming down from Grand Prairie today and today I'm going to do laundry and head over to MEC to get a new headlight, since I'm planning to do some night riding. It's cooler and I don't get that funky cyclists tan.
