BC Bike Race 2018: Day 4, Earls Cove to Sechelt.

"After that trail, if there's one game I'll never play again it's Frogger," said an American rider, between laboured breaths.

Forty kilometers into a 62-km day, climbs like the Sechelt classic Frogger can feel like salt on an open wound. That's when camaraderie is forged on the trail though - the unspoken language of mutual, dig-deep suffering.
