Durango Prov.
Since quite a long time we are meeting cyclists again. This german couple is also on the road since nearly 2 years. From the southern dip of South America to North America.
We together had at least a nice lunch beside of the road. Had a nice talk and exchanged the infos of the route, of course ;)
Good luck to you for your last remaining months!

Redwoods, Oregon
The very first time we met in summer in nórthern British Columbia in Canada. He on his way north, we heading south. Months later we suddenly ´run into Doug along the famous Pacific Coast Route. He started initally in Montreal, cycled up north to Alaska and then south to southern USA. He plans cycling all the long way down to Argentina. Together with Mark we have now a real Bicycle Camp every evening. Very nice!

Astoria, Oregon
We met Mark - The Smoking Cycling Canadian - just 1 mile before the border of Oregon state on a rest area. The following days we kept meeting in the evening on the hiker&biker campgrounds along the pacific. We ara cycling now more then one month like this together - the "bible" (his book about the pacific coast bicycle route) helped us a lot to agree on the evening meeting points.
So, despite of the bad weather and rain, we enjoy our time in the morning and evening under a tarp! He plans also going "south", maybe to Cuba, but maybe also somewhere else...

Clinton
First met in Clinton, the along the Kelly Lake Road and finally on the road to Lillooet where unfortunately a spoke of Carmen"s bicycle broke. Therefore we cycled a little bit together and had then a very nice tenting above the Fraser River.
After a "coffee for breakfast" in Lillooet those three were leaving to go to Vancouver. It was very funny!

Deconstruction Bay
First we met Thomas in Deconstruction Bay for a coffee (or two...). He then wanted to take a lift to Whitehorse because of his injured left knee. But the though guy cycled and pushed is bicycle further south. That fast that we camped together in the evening beside of the road. After a shorter ride we met again in Haines Junction!
