| Bio | A career aviator, Peter Rowlands was an avid paddler and skier until artificial leg joints helped transform him into a dedicated cyclist and storyteller with four self-published books now on his resume, along with multiple contributions to aviation magazines. By combining aviation postings and camping adventures, Peter happily claims to have lived in every province and territory of Canada. He currently resides north of Toronto with his loving partner and reluctant critic, Susan. |
