A place near me named Frank Slide. Yes, an entire side of a mountain fell down. Missed me by about 5 minutes! Just kidding...

Be careful you don’t park in the Euclid’s shadow !
Of you might end up with some wall Art

That's the Trans-Canada highway in the background.

It wouldn't be a road trip worth taking without a giant roadside attraction!

Sometimes, I think I’m getting carried away with this picture thing 
But when your riding around some cool place, how can you Not stop and take a picture of you bike as you were riding through

I'm 100% the opposite. I keep thinking I'm having too much fun to stop now.

Ay and there’s the rub, I sort of hate stopping,
but sometimes… you think to yourself -
“Self wouldn’t this make a great shot “

Not that you'd ever know it, but I have to force myself to stop and take a photograph. I much prefer to just keep going!

Nice little day to go for a ride through the Canadian Rockies. I am so fortunate that I have such stunning scenery so close to me. I never take it for granted!
Your pics have convinced me that I need to visit your neck of the woods. I've got it good here in Oregon, and been to BC several times, but wow, Alberta looks mighty tasty.
Wait till the fall colors come out!

It is truly a beautiful place. But honestly - every state and province of our two countries is filled with beauty. The trick is just getting out of the house, getting on the bike, and riding off to the horizon. We are so fortunate to be able to do so!

My hometown is famous for this giant trestle train bridge that traverses a valley. And off to the left, horizontal to the hillside, is the university. As it is the September long weekend, you can imagine the hustle and bustle of 10,000 students inundating our quaint little city on the prairie!

Another day, another 700 kilometres through the open countryside. This time I headed north through oil and dinosaur country.
This is the Royal Tyrell Museum, one of the world's foremost dinosaur museums. I live in a place rich in dinosaur finds and fossils. It should be on your bucket list - the museum is huge, and it can take a full 7 hours to get through it.

Wow. Beautiful. Next year I'm riding in Alberta!
Stunningly beautiful.

September is here - the air is a little cooler, the fields are dormant, and there are a "few" less bugs to pepper me. Not a long ride, but even the short ones are a pleasure!
Your bike is starting to grow on me...
