We started the trip with a visit with friends in Calgary. An exchange student was visiting from Finland, the home of the Kickbike, and we were interested to hear her comments and excitement about the kickbike. She took it for a spin and well, she was a natural at it. Maybe something in the DNA? Then off to Canmore, home of Canada's Olympic Nordic training. The Nordic centre with it's 6.5km of paved trail was perfect for kickbiking, reaching a top speed of 54km/hr on one of the short steep downhills.
