The Gals

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 35: (June 8) Clavet to Viscount 58.1km

Following the 16 we battled headwinds all day, it was quite draining. Exhausted, we stopped in Viscount. This little village was pretty much closed for the night when we arrived. The bar was open at the time and so we asked where we could stay for night. A very kind older gentleman named Mr. Koller offered we stay on his lawn. We had a peaceful evening in his yard cooking fajitas with our camp stove which were so delicious!!! Mr Koller was very kind, he allowed us to shower which was much needed at this time to wash off all the dirt and sweat and sunscreen.
