Howdy! Welcome to the home of the across Canada ride "Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History" and the Feature Documentary "Chasing Canada"
April 28,2008: Kimber and her horse Kat rode west from Trenton, Nova Scotia with a goal of the Pacific Coast of Canada, 6,000+km and 5-6 months down the road. Her driving inspiration is Barbara Kingscote's 1949 journey from Mascouche, Quebec to Vancouver, British Columbia.
Is it still possible for a lone woman in her twenties and her horse to make it across Canada almost purely on character and the hospitality of the Canadian spirit?
October 4, 2008: Kimber and Kat found themselves facing west with their feet salty and wet. They had made it to the Pacific. And more importantly they had found not only the "generous heart of my country" that Barb had found, but also an inspiring pioneering spirit. It had taken them 160 days, during which they had been taken in by 112 families and supported by hundreds of Canadians coast to coast.
