#3 The Long Way Home. An Epic Bike Tour through the Coast Mountains of BC with Carl Kohnstamm
An epic Bike trip through the Coast Mountains of British Columbia. We started this trip by breaking down our bikes and stuffing them in the back of a 60's 3 seater Cessna plane. We took off from Squamish at Sunrise and flew over the Coast mountains to Cache Creek where we would start the 285km ride back home. Starting in Cache Creek, we then road through Lilloet, Pemberton, Whistler then arrived in Squamish. An epic day where nothing went right and still remains one of my favourite days on the bike or in the mountains. Carl is the furthest thing from a road cyclist, comes from a background of ski mountaineering and general Alpinism. He just got the bike and this would more than double his previous longest ride but with the attitude of a Golden Retriever headed out for a walk, this was set to be a memorable day.
