Welcome to our blog!


We are three young women embarking on a cross Canada cycling trip! We will be starting May 5th from Victoria, B.C, making our way

East to St John’s, Newfoundland, spanning over >7000km. We are planning to stay mostly in campsites, but will indulge now and then in a roof over our heads (be it a hotel/motel/holiday inn, friends/family, or couchsurfing/warm showers). We will be carrying all our gear on our bikes, including tents and camping equipment.


This is by faaaar our biggest cycling adventure yet, and, after a LOT of planning and practice, we are so excited to get rolling!


Feel free to contact us with any questions or comments, and please check out our fundraising pages along the side bar!


Thank you!

Day 3: (May 7) Kilby to Hope 57km

We are starting to find that we can expect to pack up our site at the same pace as kindergarten children- approximately 3 hours to pack our tents and bikes and have breakfast. 
We had a nice flat ride to Hope. For lunch we stopped in a very cute little town called Agassiz. Hopefully a picture of this Shoppers Drug Mart will portray the cuteness of this town.
In hope we stopped at 6th Avenue Sports where they helped us with a few issues we were having with our bikes. For the night we stayed in the Coquihalla Campground, at a site looking onto the river. Emily met us for hotdogs and beers around the campfire! :)
