Day 2 - the Importance of Tires




What a day... Woke up early, not realizing that I had a huge gash in my tire... must've happened enroute to the University of British Columbia. Anyway, thankfully UBC has a bike co-op, that sells tires and let's you use their tools etc...

Anyway, so instead of leaving early I left late and only made it as far as Mission, BC, not to Hope as was initially planned. The good news is I have two new tires and a new chain.

Rainy and grey day.... about 16 degrees.
Total of 61km travelled.
