Interesting , his ashes were scattered at Grey Creek Pass, the highest point on the trans-canada trail, between Nelson and Kimberly in the lower mainland of BC. I completed a 10-day tour from Vancouver to Edmonton 2 weeks ago, and we got absolutely slammed with rain, hail, sleet and subzero temps up on that pass.
My partner and I rode 1671 km total over the 10 days, and on Day 9 we pushed ourselves and logged 290 Km between the Mosquito Creek Hostel on the icefields parkway and the town of Lodgepole. It was a personal daily distance record for me, but an average day for Lael on her round-the-world tour.
She passed through Vancouver on the 19th, which was 2 days before I landed in Van to begin my ride. She had about 100 Vancouver cyclists riding with her a ways through the city.
I saw Iohan fly past me walking on the KVR once, although I didn't realize it until I watched one of his videos and recognized the bike and flare on it. His suicide was so tragic. It's amazing how so many people from different walks of life can feel a kindred connection to him through his videos. RIP.

It’s interesting how I feel after a long ride (and I haven’t been much over 100 miles).
Sort of empty for a few days following. Hitting hills or long flights of stairs doesn’t stop me, but my heart rate won’t go up enough to move quickly.
Doing that every day for 1/3 of a year is phenomenal.
