It’s been a tour filled with adventure, some drama and many, many encounters will real Canadians in their home environments. In this video, the four riders who are completing the tour — Colleen, Rick, Lisa and Doug — talk about their emotions as the tour comes to its conclusion.

  7. Congrats to all of you on such an epic adventure. Great to have met you at the Goobies rest stop yesterday.

    Now about that screech in!

  8. Great accomplishment! The weather in New Brunswick has been fantastic this past week for re-roofing my son’s house. 5 days of no rain and a lot of work! Although, I would have preferred to have continued biking with ConnecTours! God willing, I will be able to bike with you in 2023???

  9. Congratulations! Amazing accomplishment. All the things the rest of us have done and have been doing since you passed through Nelson, and you have been cycling, day in day out, through that whole time!
