KG Tris #28: 7/5/09 - Erik's Epic Ride

Welcome to Episode #28 of the Kelownagurl Tris Podcast!

In this episode, we listen to audio recorded during Erik's 292 km solo ride from Banff to Jasper on Monday, June 29, 2009!

**Just a reminder that I will be in France and Italy until July 26th so there will be no episodes for the next two weeks. Thanks for your patience!

Things I talk about in this episode:

Banff Jasper Icefields Parkway

Below is the elevation profile in reverse going from Jasper to Lake Louise, near Banff. However, Erik will be starting in Banff then riding to Lake Louise, then on the Icefields Parkway to Jasper, so his ride will include this profile done the opposite direction. There will be approximately 6500' of climbing over two major mountain passes.
