And we're off!

Well not yet. But we did make a decision and now I have only seven months to get in shape (grin). This year's bike trip which will be in the Canadian Rockies--Banff to Lake Louise to Jasper. It's actually a blend of two of the choices I had listed on my poll as after I'd posted the poll we found an itinerary that combined the best of two tours we'd been looking at.

The final tipping point was advice from Megan who was a guide on our Utah trip. If all goes according to plan Megan will also be one of the guides on this trip, which will be a nice bonus.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in on the "Where should I bike this year?" poll, and left comments. Lots of good options and definitely things to think about for future trips.
