Banff National Park is incredibly beautiful... and it turns out that there is short window at the end of the summer, they shut down an old access road to cars and leave it open just for bikes... and that time was this week! What an opportunity - challenge accepted!

... and fortunately this was only sign of bears we saw!

The park is huge, and after almost 65 miles of bike riding and very sore bums we called it a (long) day.... but a great day!
