Friends and family accuse me of being a car nut. It’s true. I adore little more than experiencing the world beind the wheel of an automobile - preferably a gutsy little sports car.

So, imagine my excitement when I spotted an ad for my ultimate summer road trip. “Twenty spectacular weeks of summer in the Canadian Rocky Mountains with Horizon & Co. Three magnificent fairytale properties of Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. One sleek and sexy BMW Z4 Roadster.”

Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, BMW Canada and Horizon & Co have teamed up to offer the unforgettable experience of exceptional cars, grand resorts and the magnificent Rocky Mountains all together in one place. With a BMW Z4 Roadster, I could spend spend six glorious days exploring the pristine wilderness and five equally glorious nights at the area’s historic Fairmont resorts. Better yet, the itinerary for this drive allows ample time for exploring on my own.

Now all I have to do is talk an editor into assigning me the story.
