Jen Finishes and video to come

Jen finished the Vancouver Island quest this morning at 6AM. I will be posting video snippets here over the next few days, while I begin sifting through 8 hours of raw footage and creating a documentary of the expedition. Should be done in 5-6 months, seriously. :)

Back online!!!

Jen is still on the West Coast Trail. Significantly behind schedule but still moving forward. We await her at Renfrew, BC. We expect her between 2-4AM Thursday morning. Will update regularly until the morning, if anything is going on.

More details here....

Filming, St. Josef Beach

Your Camera man in action, well maybe not to much action. :) Tomorrow will be a busy day chasing Jen on the Juan de Fuca Trial, so I will up date from the Truck when able.

Start of last nights bike

Jen and Norm headed out on a 200km bike last night, 9pm, in the pouring rain. By 4AM, 100km in, they were sleep bonking and swerving on the road. It was time for an hour of sleep. Here is the start of that section after coming of Strathcona peak.

Truck Cam

Erik and Stan following Jen with cameras. This is from our on-board truck cam. Not good quality but easy while you are driving. :)

Some Details

Jen left Bamfield, Start of the West Coast trail, at about 3pm Wednesday. She should complete the trail in 18-20hrs. We will see her at the end of the trail at about 8AM Thursday morning. She will have about a 20km bike, 1hr, possibly 1hr sleep and then onto the Juan de Fuca Trail headed to Victoria.

If you have any questions post them as comments and I will try to address them tonight until 11pm.

This is a raw video clip of the Strathcona section, yesterday. Jen completed 200km of mountain bike today, That is a total of 520km of mountain bike so far. She is now pushing through West coast trail for 18 hours non-stop. So far she has had 4 hours of sleep in 61 hours of continuous pushing.
