A great start to a tour. Sun Peaks in the rain. Oh, and bears…
As it turns out, Mrs. Marmalade (I think we can call her Yvonne for short) is just fine at riding bikes. Especially twisty steep stuff in the wet. Which is lucky as that’s what Sun Peaks has a lot of.
Oh, and she also likes riding slippery wood and the occasional double entendre. I sense a loooooong trip ahead.

Can you believe it? I missed riding Sun Peaks yesterday. It’s not like I partied that hard, but we were feeling kinda laid back.
Couldn’t do that today. Even though it was seriously cold this morning (-32C at the top), we were out early.
Seems like everyone else was too. The lineups at the bottom were HUGE. But when we got up to the top…..nobody was around. I guess they just want to sit on the high speed lifts. Who cares if there’s lots of pow to shred.
Granted, it was a bit cold up there, but so worth it.
Tippie and his ca. 1993 Rossi race deck. Now you know why we call him ‘Brettro’.
Well, that and also cause he’s old.

And the sunset itself. Just hitting the summit for the last run at nearly 5PM, and it’s a long run down. It was nearly dark by the time we finished. Good thng Brett is so charming, or we’d have been in a lot more trouble with the ladies.
