Jasper Fun

May long weekend was another epic trip the only downside was that we had to stay in a hotel and weren't able to bring H-doggie. We both really missed him but with the amount of time we spent on our bikes, he wouldn't have had a good time anyway. We arrived Friday afternoon and after getting unpacked we had a chance to go out for a quick spin up to the base of Edith Cavell mountain. The road was closed so we made a plan to definitely come back the next day and ride it. We had plans to turn the weekend into a mini tri-camp but we are both so in love with the cycling in Jasper that we just spent the whole weekend riding. Friday was a 30km ride, Saturday was a 60km major climb and a 70km flatter, faster ride. Sunday was a 100km ride to Maline Lake which is one of our favorite rides and by Monday neither of us had the energy to get out of bed. We went to the hot springs and headed home, we both missed our boy and he was pretty tired from being in the kennel all weekend.
