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 37: (June 10) Wynyard to Saltcoats 183.2km

Today we took very few pictures, as this was our furthest day of riding to date! The winds were pulling us so we took advantage and covered some ground. We got up and had an early breakfast at A&W (our favourite). We cycled until close to sunset, stopping in the small town of Saltcoats. We ate dinner at the pub in town. After dinner it was dark, and we still had to find out way to the campground. The municipal campground was less than 2km from the pub but the road was not lit and neither was the campground. We ended up camping on the beach as we could not find the campsites. 
Only picture from the day!
