Jacquie did an amazing job with getting us stocked with food and all the necessities for the trip. The most complicate step was getting the right combination of bikes on the bike rack. After several attempts, the difficult decision was made to leave our spare bike behind. After about an hour on the road, Timo realized he forgot his cycling shoes! So far, no other missing items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--1024x668.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4654\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--768x501.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--1536x1001.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--2048x1335.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cycling4water.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/North-Canyon--18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This first leg to Prince George was a beautiful drive through the Fraser Valley, into the Fraser Canyon to the high ranch country of central BC.
