WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY!!

WOW!! Our first day of good weather! We covered 206 Km in just 6&1/2 hours! We started off in Fernie with skies that were cloudy but showed promise. Everything worked really well today - the clouds lifted and we were able to see the magic of the mountains that surrounded us as we approached the Alberta border. We had a good strong tail wind as well that pushed us along through the last of the rockies and into the beautiful rolling hills and endless blue skies. Looking back at the rockies was pretty awesome,, knowing what we had gone through to get where we were.
Cowley, Alberta was roughly at our 100K mark so we stopped for lunch and then rode pretty much non stop to Lethbridge. The roads were smooth and flat and with that tail wind we finished our day tired but in great form.
