They have this. I am assuming you can hike it also. A Trail, eh. Then I was reading up on a humongus rails to trails which connects. A branch of that starts right over in Osoyoos. I need plug ins so I can ride my e-bike.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

Hmm. 12% singletrack. I wonder whether I could do it on my Cervelo fondo bike?

Years ago (12 or more), I did a short bit of the KVR - Kettle Valley Railway with a few friends. Going north from Summerland we crossed some impressive trestles south and east of Kelowna. I believe several of those trestles burned in a wildfire in 2008(?). I guess the trestles must have been replaced by now? Then, the trail system was just getting popular as enough pieces had been linked together. Here is a detailed map of that system: http://www.thekvr.com/kettle-valley-railway-map.php I’ve seen people riding it near Osoyoos and Oliver last time I was up there. I know it was planned to link KVR up to some other long systems. Possibilities abound, now, it appears!
