Day 8 of my tour has just come to an end, and it ends in Regina. So far I have presented to 8 schools, and performed at 2 bike shops. I know my journal message is being reposted in various places, so for those that don’t know what my school presentation is all about, check out the new web site, www.trialsoflife.com.After the last post, some people thought I was camping during the whole tour, not quite the case, but when I have a spare chance to visit a nice provincial park, I’ll take it! Check out the picture below for the reason why, ahhhhhhh.  I have used a few different GPS navigation systems, and they just keep getting better. I have a new Garmin that has been nearly 100% so far, just love it. Punch in the school address, and it leads you right there. I was able to sit back and cruise along some nice highways from Alberta to Saskatchewan, here’s a pic that wraps the prairies up nicely. My motto for this tour is “never turn down a home cooked meal”. I’m fortunate to have had one already, and overall just blown away by all the kind, and generous people I have met and dealt with so far. Whether it be a bike shop owner, school student, teacher, bike enthusiast, gas station attendant, principal, or journalist, I have to say, there are some pretty cool people around. So thanks to all those who have been so gracious with me!!Regina is the head office home of my tours title sponsor, The Co-operators. There is lots going on while I’m here, so I’m going to get some rest. Most will read this tomorrow, so Happy Thursday everyone!!Ryan
