Hi everyone, well we made in one piece. Flights were good. Only 1 minor hitch as we were boarding in Auckland we were told that one of our bags would not be coming with us! What the?? Apparently even empty and aired out fuel bottles are not allowed on flights.
So the long and short of it is that our bag followed on later and is in Calgary, but not with us yet!
When we arrived last night it was 30C, today it is much cooler (maybe cold) and drizzling!! Awesome thunder storm over night, pleased we were not in the tent.
We spent the day doing chores like shopping (our second favourite thing after cycling!!). MEC is still the coolest outdoor shop ever.
We have splashed out on a very little and light laptop. Not up and running yet but will be.
Nicole we hope you and Millie have finally meet and bonded and are now BFF.
Off to supermarket and for dinner now.
Catch up soon, S and J x

S and J,
As enjoyable as the planning and prep is, the best bit by far is the partaking. Even I am quite excited and I've not even been near the place for 10 yrs! Definitely envious.
Photos of Great Divide ride website brought back a truckload of happy mems of the Canada. The scenery doesn't 'vary' much but blimey it sure is massive and spectacular. Whenever I hear a "squawk" from a member of the crow family (obviously not in NZ!) it takes me back - I expect they'll be keeping several eyes on you! Happy and pedalling (and lots of both at the same time).
