Ride 6 - 29 March 2019
Distance 15.9 miles (Distance to date 100.9 miles)
Time 1:49 (Time to date 11:28)
This ride was dominated by one thing. The request from my friend Charlie to ride past her house so her boys (my little friends) could wave to me as I cycled past.
I did my bit, Charlie did not. She was asleep when I passed.
This ride was a bit more rushed than usual, as I had a deadline to be home. The roads were pretty favourable; look at those beautiful gridded streets!
Points of Interest.....
Bike Dog Mural (48.44294, -123.40064)
Bikes.... Dogs.... add a beer and all the things I love in my life in a mural! (edit: wife and son too)
Also great quality of work and in great condition if you're ever in the area!
Cecelia Ravine Bike Park (48.44495, -123.37763)
A bike park, in urban Victoria! Obviously the trails don't compare to Whistler, but a great little facility for the next big star to whip his balance bike around.
U-Bicycles are not suitable for this terrain (yes, I tried)!
Rope to Gorge (48.443062, -123.391393)
The Gorge waterway is beautiful from almost every angle. But I found a new and interesting angle, down this rope to access the shore!
Hidden away, I'd be surprised if this spot is ever busy......until this blog reaches the masses!
Chainsaw House (48.45039, -123.39578)
On reflection, the title I gave this isn't the most inviting. The house has a few model Stihl Chainsaws outdoors........ other brands are available.
The chainsaws are harmless (I think).
