All Tales From The Road since the beginning of times:
Hey, it’s been a while… it’s time for an update!
In our previous “Tales from the Road” (May/June/July) we transitioned from Houselife back to Vanlife, because British Columbia went out of complete lockdown and allowed traveling again. The plan was to travel British Columbia and ride our bikes (no surprises here 😉 ). In our last update, we made it to the awesome city of Nelson (#1):
We continue where we left off… Thanks for joinging us!
We like to party on the trails all day, so it gets quiet pretty early here at the basecamp...
As you know Eric and Yuka are full time YouTubers, and they're much better than us at telling stories... Here is how mountain biking goes around here:
And when our bodies cannot take it anymore, we trade our wheels for our hiking shoes...
Randoms...
Sessioning jumps and picking berries, everyone is busy and happy in the woods!
Far Out Views 🙂
Beautiful Fernie
Good night!
The Rockies are just gorgeous...
Back to Eric and Yuka!
Venturing into the alpine is always an adventure!
Over 1,500m of descent ahead, this should be good...
And here we are, back “home”. It’s been a very busy summer with a LOT of riding and traveling, it feels so good!
The CAN/USA border is still close at the time of writing these lines and let’s face it, it won’t open anytime soon. So we decided to adapt to the situation and spend the winter in Revelstoke where we’ll be renting a place from November to March. Why not stay in the van? We discussed about that in this post:
Meanwhile, here we are in the Sea To Sky trying to make the most what’s left of our riding season:
That's it for now! Expect snow in our next update. Hopefully a lot of it 🙂

Nice To Meet You.
Hello! We’re Isabelle and Antoine 
In 2017 we sold our house (and everything in it), quit our engineering careers and moved into our self built campervan. We’ve been on the road since then and every day is an opportunity for a new adventure; we’re chasing our dreams and hopefully it inspires others to do the same!
Allo Isabelle Antoine…..
Vous avez vraiment un très beau site web … vous tripez ( full time ) et devez faire rêver beaucoup de gens…

Votre site web comporte d’excellentes idées ….

I’ve not seen another website with so much organized content and resources available. Good on you! The Van Build Story with Pics/Links to the project is awesome.
Another “hats off” to you for following your dreams. I’m really close to retirement, and the plan is to build a van, not to live in for long periods, but to travel for Mountain Biking as well (being in Ontario means lots of travel required for any High Alpine/Epic trails). Thanks again and once I’m a bit closer, I’ll purchase the complete build series, in the event Technology changes in the meantime.
Thanks for sharing! Very inspirational.
Nice picts.
Bummer about covid, but an apartment for a few months might rekindle van life nicely.
One thing interesting to me, and might be an interesting article, is when you go out to the van with new eyes, what things have not held up like you thought they should have for three years? I remember your article on the seats (and seat covers that you returned). But the van. The counter. The sink. The toilet. The floor. The bike slider. The T&G pine wall covering. And, squeaks that you could not find, so you just turn up the music.
