It is a cold, wet day in January (but at least the snow has all melted) and we have fixed our Trek start date at Sunday, May 8th. Complete with our bicycles and kit, we have to be at Victoria Airport for a 7am departure, and then via Toronto, arrive in St John’s just before midnight. It will be an interesting start to our journey trying to find a campsite in the dark, and near a major Airport!
We have already sent quite a few emails off to various corporate possible sponsors, but too early yet to expect responses. The next step is to start on the local prospects in Courtenay and Comox from whom we hope to raise most of our sponsorship money.
