Finished Canadian Rockies

[C3517C]

Well I just finished my longest trip. From Las Vegas to the Canadian Rockies and back, 3168 miles. The sights were the best I've ever seen. I stayed in Banff while I was there. It is a tourist town but it was still a great place. I would recommend this ride to anyone who is up for the adventure and can take the mileage. I did about 250 to 450 miles each day. I was beat when I got back. I'm happy to report my 2011 RTS was just about perrrrrfect. My only glitch was a finicky cruise control switch. No break downs or flats, no limp mode, no fuses or relay troubles, no running hot. I pushed it hard and it did the job.:clap:

If you didn't drive 43 from Banff to Jasper, you'll need to plan another visit! Surly is terrific country up there. Glad you had a good time - I always enjoy riding in BC and Alberta - great roads, scenery, and people.

it's actually Highway 93. I am blessed to live in Alberta and to be able to ride these roads all the time.

Cheers

:agree: That is a fantastic area to ride. The Canadian Rockies are more impressive than the US ones with more viewable glaciers.
We plan on seeing them again next year.

I agree, this is the best looking scenery I have ever been in (IMHO) and as you can see from my map I have been in a few places.
