What we’re about
We are a social Cycling Group for adults run by volunteers.
Our goal is to bring people together to have fun and make new friends while safely exploring Metro Vancouver’s many cycling routes. (We have recently added some day trips to Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and into Washington State). Our rides vary from urban and suburban to rural on bike friendly roadways, dykes and trails and from a few hours to all day. Rides are generally easy to moderate in difficulty and range from 40 to 80 km. Our hope is for participants to arrive at the end of a ride happy and satisfied with the outing and their ride leader.
