I met Steve, a history teacher from Manchester, in the Kamloops RV park where I stayed Sunday night. The park is notable because it's the first time in a 38-day summer road trip where I got to wear shorts and camp in upper 80s degree weather. It's also notable because Steve's doing a trip from Calgary to Vancouver by Brompton. I never replaced Wm the Conqueror after it was stolen in Paris in 2013. But I remember my little folding bike with much affection. Steve's using a Dutch trailer with his rig. It was great chatting with another Bromptoneer. I passed him on Hwy 5 out of Kamloops earlier this morning. While I'm not big on riding on Hwy shoulders, it's what you have to do out here.
