Well, due to Brandon's blown rear wheel, we were in desperate need of a bike shop. We left our cute campground in Summerland and headed the 20 km to the nearest bike shop in Penticton. Definitely our shortest day yet.
We rolled into Bike Barn, and proceeded to learn a lot about bike mechanics and upkeep from the wise, young bike guru, Matt. He was awesome. He pointed out all of the easy-fix flaws, and instructed us on how to fix them. We still needed a full tune up though, and so left our bikes at the shop and took off to the Hostel.
Today really just ended up being a day of errands. Which was really relaxing. Even shopping at Safeway, where we randomly ran into Les and Darlene, of Jellicoe Stn B&B! A very nice surprise.
Our day ended with some excitement. Doug, an ex-ironman, from Best Choice rentals was willing to bend the under age rule, and rent Brandon ( a fellow cyclist who's only 24.5) a car for the next day. We went to bed eagerly awaiting our wine tour the next day!
