Our journey will begin by dipping our tires in the Pacific Ocean then rolling through British Columbia and in to the Rocky Mountains of Alberta.  One of the few sections where we will venture off the Trans Canada Highway, we will ride on quieter roads through the majestic mountains then back track a bit to ride over Highwood Pass, the highest paved road in Canada, on to Lake Louise, then finish the 13 day leg in Calgary.
