D2D Day 4 Vancouver, BC to Cache Creek, BC 210 Miles

Greetings faithful Horck Adventures Blog followers; we appreciate your attention.

This morning we awoke to overcast skies and light rain in Vancouver, BC. Lane decided that he had about ten pounds of too much "stuff" that he wouldn't need on this journey, including his heated vest, so we sought out a post office and shipped same home for the measly sum of $40.00, four day delivery. I'm going to rent him my heated vest when it gets cold at an exorbitant rate to help off set my expenses.

We checked out of our hotel and rode over to Burnaby Kawasaki where we located a clutch lock-out switch for Lane's KLR.  The great guys there installed it for free and we were on our way in no time.  Kudos guys, we really appreciate the friendliness and great service.

Departing Vancouver found us once again riding in the rain, guess that's why it's so green there. Upon hitting the coast and taking Highway 99 north, the Sea to Sky Highway, the clouds parted and the sun poked its head out and greeted us with great weather the remainder of the day.

We lunched in Whistler, BC, and continued toward Cache Creek, BC, in the afternoon, on one of the best two-lane motorcycle roads anywhere. The scenery is nothing less than spectacular with a capital S. Everywhere we looked water was cascading down the mountainsides into small streams, which ran into creeks, which ran into rivers, which ran into emerald green lakes--absolutely gorgeous. Interestingly, we saw about twenty "You are leaving an avalanche area" signs; however, we only saw two "You are entering an avalanche area" signs. So, I guess you have about a one in ten chance of knowing that you are actually in an avalanch area. How does that work?

We rolled into Cache Creek, checked into our quaint little motel, did a load of laundry and had a late super. Tomorrow, we're off to Prince George, BC. Weather if forecast as "iffy."  Wish us luck.

I'll leave you today with the pictures of the Sea to Sky Highway and Whistler, BC. Enjoy.
