To test my equipment and myself, I decided to cycle from Victoria to Pot Hardy. On the way I had a head over fall, broke my back rack, killed my side stand and had countless broken spokes.
I had big doubts along the way whether I’m doing the right thing – being on bicycle. Never the less, after about three days I started to like it and so I went on.
The days on the ferry
The last 10 days were outlined by hours on ferries, spending some days in places along the way and, by rain. Some days it rained a bit and then we had some sun and some days it suned a bit and then we had some rain. No, it was not too bad, just every time I liked to do something it started to rain. I know – this here is Alaska and that kind of weather is part of it, but – I’m just not the kind of person to go out and hike around all day long while it is raining just to see some mountains and glaciers covered in clouds – no that is not my thing.
