Tour of Vancouver Island, 2011 July 16th, 17th and 18th Overview: Join me in on an amazing 3 day journey from Courtenay, BC down to Victoria, the capital of the Brittish Columbia. Each night we'll stay at a new place and celebrate with a post ride dinner and brew. Each day will be filled with amazing new sights and discoveries as we tour seaside roads, mountain gateways, dive through the forests of Macmillan Provincial Park, and island hop from Vancouver Island to Saltspring Island. This ride will be filmed from multiple perspectives. I may enlist your help to carry an additional camera. Support: I will have a sag wagon to follow us from checkpoint to checkpoint. We can accomodate 2 cyclists 2 bikes and 2 carry on bags for overnight stays. The wagon will carry supplies for repairs as well as lunches and water. Because these rides will end in a new town each night, if you wish to participate and are not in my caravan, you will need to have your own transportation. If you wish to be in my caravan, sign up below! Your responsibility: If you are in my caravan, you will be responsible for your own accomodations and your own meals. Please sign up soon as motel space is at a premium this time of year. After we arrive in Victoria, I will be staying 2 nights in Victoria. If you are in my caravan, you may want to make arrangements to hop the train back to Cortenay in order to retun on your own schedule. The train runs twice daily from Victoria to Cortenay.
