Day 10: Shuswap Lake to Sicamous 40km


Today was the first day of Bike problems on the road. We had just set off from Johns and we had to pull over as Agnes' gears decided they didn't want to shift. We spent an hour or so at the side of the road trying this that and the other with no luck. We managed to get the lower gears to work so that we could cycle in to Salmon Arm. The plan before this was to make it to Revelstoke but by the time we got to Salmon Arm and got the bike fixed it was too late in the day. We decided to have a short ride to Sicamous. We managed to cook up our best meal of the trip on the camp stove. Seasoned pork and black bean rice with a special Agnes salad. Even though we aren't racking up as many miles as we would have liked to by this point we have had a great time and really taken in British Columbia. The Rockies await us in two days so I may change my feelings after the many climbs that await.
