Finally the weather has cleared up. We had a fine day to do our ride of 115km. The first 33 km were uphill about 800m to the summit of Rogers Pass.
Then a very steep descent before another equally long climb. The final 40km into golden were largely flat but into a brutal headwind.
Everyone finished the day feeling a bit jaded. The other issue was that there were no stores or petrol stations to get supplies.
We are staying indoors at a lodge in Golden. Kicking Horse Lodge.
At least I finally got to see the Rockies. The rain 2 days ago is causing the organizers issues because the Trans Canada highway is closed between Banff and Calgary.
We have decided to push on to Lake Louise tomorrow and then to Banff. Flooding in Calgary may mean we can't get there. So we may have an alternative rest day. See Google for news on flooding in Calgary - a real disaster.
Now dining out in town on bison and bruschetta.
