We left the hostel and cycled along highway 1A, the Bow Valley Parkway, out of Lake Louise until Banff. This was a beautiful quiet road with spectacular views. We had lunch and treats when we got to Banff. While having lunch outside on a bench we were approached by a guy who was also bike touring East named Tristan. Tristan happened to know Nina from Ottawa. It's a small world after all!
After lunch we took the Legacy Trail to Canmore. This was relatively flat compared to what we had been used to, so we were quite appreciative. We met Chelsea, a friend of our bike touring friend named Simon, who had offered to host us for the night. We had a fun night hanging out with Chelsea and were happy to have a home to sleep in! We had dinner at the Rose and Crown Pub in Canmore, which was delicious, and took in views of the mountains.
