Routes / Re: Jasper, Golden, Kamloops loop
« on: January 05, 2014, 03:19:39 am »The TCH has decent shoulders except for the short bridges where you have to pick your time and ride quickly. The trickiest part of the TCH is getting through the snowsheds/tunnels around Rogers Pass. I made it through or around them without too many problems but they can be a bit intimidating. The Parkway road has decent shoulders but quite a few cracks in the surface. So get used to little speed bumps. But the view makes it all worthwhile. Highway 5 also has decent shoulders. There is a fair amount of truck traffic on Hwy 5 but it is not a huge issue. Hwy 5 and Hwy 16 to Jasper is fairly easy cycling.
