Christmas in Vancouver on Two Wheels

Vancouver is a great place to discover by bicycle throughout our warm summers. However, the city lights up over the holiday season and hosts numerous activities and events to get you into the spirit of the season. For our family, it has become a tradition to bundle up and set out to any number of activities throughout Vancouver on bicycles. With a portable stereo on hand, we enjoy the twinkling lights and get into the Christmas spirit while listening to some of our favourite Indie Christmas songs.

Gluten-Free Globetrotting Your Way Through Portland

As someone living with Celiac Disease for more than thirty years, all of Erin’s travels have always been gluten-free. She’s been to 28 states, 18 countries, 3 continents, and always 100% gluten-free!

We are blessed to watch bike tourism history unfold in our backyard, the Columbia Gorge, for the past 8 years and for the next 5 years. This was from Saturday's Mitchell Tunnel dedication by @oregondot, a critical link in reconnecting the Historic C
