Vancouver - Ready for Departure

Today, Wednesday 12 June, was taken up with a briefing by the tour organizers of how the trip will operate. We were introduced to Shane and Megan, young students who will be driving and cooking. 

The trip leaves at 8am tomorrow. They have supplied us each with a new cycling jersey to wear. 

For those with a keen interest in the route the first week is to Fort Langley, Hope, Manning Park, Hedley and Kelowna. This is about 500km.

There are 11 of us starting the trip. The tour company owner is also joining us for the first few days.

Reporting from here on depends on access to wifi, so don't be surprised if there is sometimes a few days between communications.
