9 days, that\u2019s how long it took before I felt good enough to get back on the bike.\u00a09 days in which I felt a little bit better every day, but in which my head would still go a bit hazy and blurry in the evenings. At the end of those 9 days my consciousness seemed to have settled, my headaches were pretty much gone, I had purchased extensive health insurance and my body felt steady again.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Together with my host Bruce I got started on the Icefields Parkway<\/strong> two weeks ago.\u00a0Finally!\u00a0We were going to make short bikedays (60km). Taking it easy.<\/p>\n

As we started biking I still felt a bit worrisome, but with every turn of the pedals I regained trust in my body and mind. It felt good to be outside again in nature and to put up my tent in the open air. Make a fire, read a book and crawl into my sleeping bag for an early night in one of the closed campsites.<\/p>\n
