Into a new time zone
Cranbrook and storms
05.06.2009
After 195 kms that included two heavy rainstorms, thunder and lightning, and heat followed by cold wind, Bryan arrived in Cranbrook, BC. He passed a sign that told him he was in the same time zone as home.
He was interviewed at the Creston information centre by the local paper. Headline maker!
Bryan's routine starts with a big breakfast. He eats a big meal at 3:00, followed by a 30 minute rest, snacks while riding and eats again when he stops for the night around 10pm. It seems to be working for him. He feels great, actually said that he could have ridden longer tonight. A good day!
He plans to go to a local bike shop in the morning to get a proper bike helmet. He's just an hour from Fernie and hopes to get through the Crowsnest Pass. The forecast isn't good though...cold and snow/rain and 10km wind.
In the meantime, he has a hot shower and a queen size bed at the motel. So much for roughing it! Can't put a price on a good night's sleep though.
