Wednesday break down

On the way to work on Wednesday morning, the 2nd 66 broke down just south of Bamberton.  Bus driver Glen made every effort to get the bus going and managed to get us to Whittaker Road and off the highway.  20 minutes later the 3rd 66 arrived to rescue us.. will the combined passengers, there was one standee spot left!

Power outage victim

Following the storm on Sunday night, many of us were left in the dark.  Without power (and some of us water as well) most of us managed to make it to the bus, as so to work regardless of these set backs...most of us manage to coordinate our clothes...all exept one!

66 + 99 = 1

Terry wrote a wonderful article about the anniversary of the bus and submitted it to the local papers with the hope that they will publish it this Friday...here is an excerpt

This is the new math that announces that the commuter bus service from Duncan and Shawnigan Lake celebrated its first anniversary on October 20.  Judging by the reaction of boisterous riders, the service is a real success.  Revelers celebrated with goodies and reminiscing about events that have heralded twelve months of the Cowichan Valley's best effort yet to help British Columbia manage its carbon footprint.
