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 4: (May 8) Hope to Sunshine Valley 21.9 km

Today we went a short distance, but it was our first day of serious climbing. It was a challenge, but we took many many breaks.
We stayed at Holiday Trails RV Park and Campground in Sunshine Valley. It was chilly in the mountains, and we were sore and cold and looking to warm up! They had a nice hot tub and great showers, so we took advantage! We went for a shower, and when we came out of the shower it was pouring rain! The manager took pity on us and let us stay in the event room and even made us a fire! We were so lucky and grateful!
