My training has been going really well and I have been putting on increased mileage as I had planned. 2 weekends ago I rode 150km over 2 days. As has been the case for the longer rides I have had some numbness in my feet. Usually this goes away after a few minutes off the bike, but this time it didn't. On the M...

There are 25, 50 and 100 km options. There is a fee for the ride but you can save some money if you pre-register. I am told th...

Can anyone recommend a good website to record training ride routes? I tried bikely.com but ran into some problems with the site so I am not sure whether to stay there or go somewhere else. In particular I am looking for something that maps accurately, is easy to use and easy to print from without pages...

I've just registered for the R2CC and have zero cycling experience. I live in Horseshoe Bay and was wondering if anyone else on the North Shore was interested in meeting on a regular basis to get into shape. If interested, please email me sharon.dowling@shaw.ca. Thanks!

Hi there. I'd be interested in taking some folks on a lovely ride that starts at Colony Farm and follows the Coquitlam and Allouette Rivers, and then returns to Colony Farm via the Pitt River and Lougheed Highway. It's just about totally flat -- some gravel, some paved. I have done this ride many times a...

Last Sunday I rode Ave. from 176 St. to Sumas Border Crossing and back. The distance is approximately 77 km depending on where you park/start from (I manag...

This has to have been the best day for a ride since the autumn. I had a great training ride today. I left my home on the west side of 200 St. in the 66000 block. I pedaled to Old Yale Rd. at the Langley Bypass and followed it to 240 St., (Where the Hill Top Cafe is). I then followed Fraser Highway to Mt. Lehma...

These are just captures from my blog but I thought the detail on the routes might be helpful What a fantastic training ride! I did about 80 KM on Monday. I wanted to do two days of long rides back to back to see where I was in my training. I had a great ride with some harrowing experiences but all in all it was a r...
