In hopes of getting Jasper on the route map in the future, Mayor Richard Ireland, left, and Coun. Dwain Wacko, right, travelled to Edmonton for the start of the 900-kilometre Tour of Alberta bike race last week. The inaugural race took professional cyclists from Edmonton to Calgary, through the prairies, badlands and Rocky Mountains, Sept. 3–8. While in Edmonton, Ireland and Wacko connected with Edmonton mayor, Stephen Mandel (middle).
