Today was a long, but otherwise pretty uneventful riding day. I left Calgary in the morning, and got a bit surprised over the intense morning traffic while I was driving through the city. After having spent a whole week riding in some of the most remote places in North America, it clearly felt a bit unusual to be in a big city, with lots of people and traffic.



The border crossing to the US proceeded smoothly, and later in the afternoon I rode into the capital of Montana, Helena.
