June 28, 2006 – Looking for a cross-Canada bike route? Want to avoid major highways? Seeking adventure stories along the way? Need convincing that it’s never too late to do it?

In 2004 sixty-six year old Janice Kenyon designed and then pedalled her route with a twist – to avoid the Trans Canada Highway and to stay north of the US border. She pedalled more than 8,000 kilometres over three and a half months to follow her dream – and now has written her book in hopes cyclists, and especially women and seniors, will be inspired to follow her biking trails.

From Mile Zero in Victoria, BC to Mile Zero in St. Johns, Newfoundland, the author discovers just some of Canada’s unique cultures and histories – lures for cylists of all ages and from anywhere in the world.
