I want to ride something down that way towards the end of august.:biggrin:

I'll be between whistler, squamish and the shore for about 2 weeks; feel like hooking up for a ride or two?

Thanks. I know the shore and whistler well enough but squamish is all new to me.

And I have NO IDEA how to ride off something on a rigid bike. Maybe I'll have a clue by then. My bmx bikes always had suspension when I was growing up.

Nice pics. I killed myself around there enough just riding in the rain. Snow......well that's just crazy.:tongue:

Bummer drenchman..........for me not for you obviously.:D

Me, FD and Vandelay are *possibly* going to ride somewhere in Van. Sat A.M., early...but I have to catch a plane at 1:00. What would make the most sense given the time constraint?

Do you want to pedal up or shuttle?

The easier option is a shuttle on Seymour. Drop a car at Park Gate instead of Old Buck to save the parking fee.

Ride CBC, Salvation, Corkscrew, Pingu, Pangor, Empress.

The pedal option would be Fromme. Park at the school on Coleman and pedal on up. Lots and lots of options for your way down depending on what challenge you are looking for. For a good Shore butt kicking I'd suggest Upper Oil Can, Pink Star Fish, Boundry.
