Days 1 and 2 - Victoria to Hope, BC.

Our jerseys were ready, bikes all tuned up, the hope of seeing a killer whale lingered and the anticipation of day 1 was upon us.

We woke up on Friday morning to sunshine! Our team of five, including Saskia, our fellow rider for the day, and Jenny and Simon, our awesome drivers, met at Mile Zero to kick off our cross-Canada tour.

We made it to the ferry in no time (with a quick pit stop when Saskia's chain fell off!), and enjoyed a few hours of relaxation. We finished off the day with a 40 km ride to Langley, BC where we stayed at Eagle Wind RV park, which lucky for us, had a hot tub!!!

Day two started off cloudy and cool. The road was flat and the rain stayed away! We were surrounded by gorgeous mountains the whole ride and followed the Fraser River until we reached Hope, BC.


Once in Hope, we decorated Lois with our Pedaling Feat sign and relaxed in the sunshine to rest our sore legs (and bums!).

The next few days promise to be a challenge with mountains galore!


More Pedaling Feat adventures to come.
