Day 16 pt1 : Fernie to Blairmore (Sabotage!!!)

We have been sabotaged! Everything has been going great but it's starting to become clear. Somebody wants to halt our journey. But let's go back and start at the beginning...

We awoke in Fernie determined to move out despite the at times heavy rain still falling outside. We stopped by the pharmacy to exchange Evan' new nee brace because he had somehow ended up with the wrong size earlier.

Leah and Ginny invented a new line of practical fashion, behold, the new plastic lobster look, soon available at high end fashion outlets across north america.



The rain pounded down and the cold sucked the heat from our bodies as we peddled over flooded rivers and pastures at a very slight incline. Fresh fallen snow rested only several dozen meters above on the steep mountain slope. Finally out of the fog and rain appeared a beacon of warmth; a cafe in the town of Sparwood. This is where we were sabotaged.

I'm some ways it all make sense because strange things have been happening. Did somebody switch my nee-brace for the wrong side? Did they plant a fungal disease in Alan's nee brace or "misplace" Ginny's hat or tea bags earlier in the morning? Could it have been one of the saboteurs agents who had led us to the below adverage pub in Fernie?

And that begs the real question, who could the saboteur be?

It would most certainly have to be somebody who knows exactly where we are. Who better than the followers of this blog!!!

In fact if you think about it, perhaps many if you have grudges against the Warpotay Team.

Could it be that my good friend Kari, is seeking revenge after coveting my spot in the junction studio for over a year?!!

Or could it be Leah's friend Meg? After all we did pass by her old home in Mission without stopping in. Perhaps we broke the local traditions in a serious way.

And of course Alan's followers could be even more dangerous. Steve and Sarah-Marie in the guise of concern gave us their spot satellite device and always know exactly where we are before anyone else. Alan has also neglected Kims emails and that could be trouble too!

Funny enough, we can't seem to come up with anybody who has a grudge with Ginny. That seems almost a little to convenient, could she be the saboteur herself? and that begs the question, if she is a suspect, isn't it quite possible that any of us could be a mole...

We finished our warm lunch at the cafe and prepared ourselves for the long wet, cold journey over our last mountain pass, the crows nest pass. Alan and Evan walked slowly out of the cafe and mounted their bike. Together they pushed off and like that they looked at each-other in horror, both of their tires were flat.....

Had they been cut? Is a blog follower the saboteur or is there is a mole in the group? Check back for day 16 part 2 to find out!

Cheers
