Day 8: June 28 -  Golden to Lake Louise – 83 Km
Day 9: June 29 -  Lake Louise to midpoint of the Ice Fields Highway
Day 10: June 30 – Ice Fields Highway to Jasper (these last 2 days are around 230km)
Day 11: July 01 - Jasper to Edmonton—transfer by bus to airport

Total: 1278km. 

Can’t wait!

Such was the enthusiasm generated by last years ride, this year there will also be a second ride running parallel.  This ride, named the Lance Gregson Memorial Ride, this will take the same route as last years ride, from Vancouver to Banff.  We will all start at the same time and then go separate off from the Veterans route on the 3rd day.
