Ride 45 - No More Waterfront to Ride

Green Bike in it's natural habitat More Deer.....said nobody in Gordon Head Points of Interest..... Sea View Bench   (48.494665, -123.328541) Beach access is at a premium in Gordon Head.  I found this little used private bench at the end of a cul de sac.  It's a little overgrown, but if you just want to take in a view in private, this would be a great spot. Warning: You may need to clear some bramble before sitting Vantreight Park   (48.492309, -123.30736) Just a ...
