Three years ago at a BBQ, Eric met someone who had peddled across the country and from that moment on, he knew he wanted to cycle across the country too. This summer, he cycled from Tofino, British Columbia to Cape Spear, Newfoundland.\n\nWe walked alongside him as he biked a trail in Riding Mountain and we talked about his journey so far, how biking across the country is different and more personable than driving and how a very long bike ride became sort of like a reunion tour for him.\n\n\nThru Here releases new episodes every Thursday. \n\nSeason one of Thru Here takes place in Riding Mountain National Park, a vast forested oasis among Manitoba\u2019s hundreds of kilometres of prairie, and a destination for many travellers.\n\nThru Here is recorded on Treaty 2 territory. The land is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota and Dene Peoples and the homeland of the Metis Nation. The land is also used by Indigenous nations from Treaties 1, 3 and 4.\u2028\u2028Check out thruherepod.com for extended content and to learn more about Riding Mountain National Park. \u2028\u2028While you're there, sign up for Thru Here\u2019s e-newsletter to stay in the know. \n\nFollow us on social media, we\u2019re @thruhere on Tumblr, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
