Hope

It rained from about 2am and continued all morning. We broke camp with wet tents and got a good soaking while riding.

The scenery looked like South Westland in the rain......which would have been nice if fine. The route followed the Fraser River all day with a couple of river crossings but a mainly tail wind.

We got into the campsite at Hope about 3pm and dried everyone out - its sunny now with a good breeze.

The bike needed a good clean and the chain oiled, since riding in the rain really makes them dirty.

The young chef (Shane) started off well last nice with spaghetti and meat balls with a home made sauce. Looks like he does dinner and the driver, Megan the breakfast.

Tomorrow we have a short hard day to Manning Park. It's only 66 km but climbs 1300m. Hope is 42 m above sea level.

Today's ride was 120km.
