Bicycling on Vancouver Island, Canada, and the San Juan Islands, Washington, was tough and beautiful, like a good man. Two women on bicycles, packing everything, caused somewhat of a stir among the natives. But we accomplished it, and such deeds benefit the world as much as poetry. The scariest part was the Holy-Crap-Itâs-A-Logging-Truck road from Lake Cowchan to Port Renfrew, where a man was mauled by a bear the week before we went. Good to be back.
