Arriving in Victoria

It was an interesting trip up to BC. Flying into Victoria without any pre-arranged transportation to the race town. Luckily I met this cool guy Barry from Santa Cruz who's also doing the race whose buddy picked us up and was nice enough to drop me off at the ferry to Mill Bay. Once on the ferry I met another cyclist who had a car across the way and offered to give me a lift to Rosebank Cottages where I would meet Jo and her Aussie crew. There we would stay for the first two nights. It actually wasn't too far from the ferry but not close enough to walk. My bike box and bag were massively heavy. With no cabs to be found I was pretty lucky. I have no idea how I would have got there outside of taking a massively expensive cab ride.
