Around my Rockies 2010
A cycling route starting in Golden, British Columbia, Canada.
Overview
About this route
Another trip in my "Around my Rockies" series. This time I drove my car to town of Golden, in the next door province of British Columbia, just a stone throw away from Calgary. Then parked my car by the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) post and hopped on my Norco. Seven days and over 850 kms later I was back in the exact same spot. All that after visiting the heart of BC Rockes - West Kootneys. I left Golden south to Radium Hot Springs then cycled thru Fairmont, Kimberley, Creston, Kaslo, New Denver, Nakusp and Revelstoke back to Golden. Amazing scenery and a great trip!
