The "Mo and Joe " ride begins.




Here we go again on to Vancouver Island to ride a total of 760 Kilometers(K's)
If you received the brochure you will notice that the total mileage on the island is less than the 760K's!! -- so -- I will be doing the "extra" mileage on the way up to Vancouver starting with the first leg going to Tomales from Inverness. The scenery on the way there will have to compare with that on Vancouver Island as you can see on the accompanying snapshots. The Island ride, as outlined, will cover 592 K's(370 miles) and the rest will be in California and Oregon some of which we have ridden before.
The first ride as I mentioned will be 44K's (27miles) and the next ride will probably be in Oregon -- will keep you posted.

  4. Hi Joe and Mo,

    Looking forward to seeing you in Victoria. We have lots of local scenic, winding, undulating roads for you to rack up those miles(kilometres).

  6. An Irish blessing for the journey:
    May the road rise to meet you.
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face...
    And rains fall soft upon your fields.
    And until we meet again,
    May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

  7. Where are you Joe?
    I enjoyed our day at Pt Reyes clinic doing our "pro-bono" cardiology clinic! Looking forward to an ECG tutorial.
    Hope your wheels are turning smoothly and weather is fine.

  10. Joe and Mo, I am jealous of your trip and riding in beautiful and cool country roads. Today is quite humid in Grand Turk. I miss my bike riding and the dawn patrol. Jack and Janet jack@jacksshack.tc
