Cranbrook BC


A longer day today -- 70 miles. I made it even longer by missign the hotel and riding another few miles out of town. And then coming back.... We were mostly on beautiful back roads, but the 25 or so miles we were on the highway weren't always pleasant. Killer rumble strips, broken shoulders, heavy traffic.
A new couple joined us today. They rode the first week of this ride two years ago, but had a bad accident (involving the rumble strip) on their tandem and spent the rest of the tour in the hospital. They are back to complete the distance.
Todays's wildlife -- osprey nest and bank swallows. And a cow in a bog.
