Sounds nice, right? Top of the World! Had to check that ride out, amiright? Top of the World Provincial Park is in the Kootenay Ranges of the Canadian Rockies, with the Top of the World Plateau at an elevation of 2,200 meters. Setting out in late September to enjoy the fall colors – reds, oranges, yellows and greens along this forest ride sounded great. And it really was. I was in awe of the fall colours, and I was struck by how the beauty of the Rockies never fails to surprise me. On this day in particular, the colors seemed to contrast off one another to produce one of the most spectaluar days in recent memory.
Add to this a bumpy, pot hole covered road that had me grinning like a fool. Like one of those days you are actually giggling to yourself becuase you feel like a kid splashing in mud puddles while your mother looks on disapprovingly.
Well in this case, it was my front wheel that was disapproving.
