Good tour. Thanks for all the nature shots! Not many cycle tourists seem to notice nature, let alone take pictures and then post them with limited time, limited energy and limited internet.

Great job!

I conquer, I am not a fan of November in Vancouver! You’d have to do some weather research as people told me summer only arrived when I showed up :)

February is (usually) prime ski season in BC! I'm thinking November-December to not be here in North Vancouver during the darkest and wettest time of the year.

As they say it’s always summer somewhere! If you are in NA it’s a great choice in February right after the New Zealand school break ends.

I'm inspired! And not getting any younger. Perhaps NZ should jump to the top of my (very long) list of future cycling destinations.

I’m incredibly fortunate and grateful that I’ve had these opportunities.

Originally it was a hiking trail but now it’s dual purpose. Last year they took out 300 steps and replaced them with really tough switchbacks and gravel. I didn’t even attempt riding that section as my front end was twitchy. I later met a guy that went OTB attempting to ride them.

Great summary. I'm in awe that you've done them both! Really enjoyed following along.

Looks more like a walking track.

Thanks Bruce, I agree. Moving through space on a bike ignites something in me and at times has me feeling 5 years old. And nothing else has matched that feeling yet.

Congratulations on your S2S ride! And, yes we need to meet up in Canada! 🇨🇦
