Vancouver and beyond

Sorry for the delay.  I've been a combination on busy andInternet-less.

Lets start with leaving Calgary.  We left the Weston promptly at 10am after an awesome breakfast buffet.  You can't beat the Westin's breakfast, especially for half off.

We rode for about an hour and saw lake Louise. 





We pushed forward through Banff and got stuck behind some construction. 



We were supposed to stay in revelstoke, but the place was dirty and creepy.  Ben went to you the toilet and it was back up to the seat.  Eeww..  So we pushed forward.  Towards Vancouver.  This ended up being on of our longest rides.  It was a combination of awesome and shitty.  Th e morning was great.  We saw Banff and it was excellent riding conditions. Once we passed salmon arm things got wet. 


The ride past salmon arm sucked. It was raining, windy and we had to go over a mountain pass.  Semis were passing us and kicking up a ton of water. But we finally made it to bens house in Vancouver.

We almost were in Vancouver for the fair. So we went with bens friends Jon, Bryce, and Michelle.

Michelle and the rides didn't get along

Yes that's that first aid guy throwing up peace signs. 

We crossed the border into Washington and then into Oregon 
Creepy street art






Oregon coast

The next two days had some really technical riding for the street.   Sharp corners with tons of grade changes.

We also saw the Oregon sand dunes
