Alex made it to Golden, BC today. He kept up with the same group of girls that he was biking with yesterday, and eventually met up with a family who was biking across Canada for diabetes research. He biked with them at a high speed for 25km. They were using road bikes with no extra gear, so everyone (including Alex!) was surprised that he was able to keep up with them for that long.

He replaced one of the spokes on his wheel that’s been giving him some trouble with a tougher one that will hopefully hold up. He has a problem with his derailleur cable, so he’s planning on taking a rest day and visiting a bike shop tomorrow.

He’s staying at the Brookside Motel in Golden, thanks to the owner/manager Rheal, who gave the group a good deal on a three bedroom rustic cabin with a nice view of the rockies.
