Canada...
Spent 8 nites up here for the northern part of our trip, more expensive than the States, very clean [except one part of Vancouver that I saw] and my 1st taste of some altitude... Briefly met Gordie and crashed a couple of days later... Truly a lovely part of the world... I'm not gonna narrate much so here's some more random pics...

Victoria










Vancouver, there was thousands apon thousands of people on and around this beach for the fireworks display off the barges this nite... the Police used the ground floor of our hotel for their base...







Gordie
















The Bambi incident...








Mt Robson


The day after the crash left Jasper headin south over Sunwapta Pass. Weather turned very cold, wet and nasty especially with no front mudguard or visor on my helmet. So glad to get to Banff...

Great Pictures, thanks for sharing . The logistics alone of organizing that many Kiwi's must have been quite feat. After viewing the deer, ditched bike & trashed road sign, I can understand why the ambulance crew member looks relieved.
