Saturday June 8 – Seymour Demonstration Forest – Leisure/Medium
For the “MEDIUM” riders, the ride starts at the Olympic Village, for the “LEISURE” riders, it starts at the parking lot just before the Seymour Demonstration Forest. Be prepared for uphill from just after the bridge, past Cap College to the start of the forest. Once in the forest, we will proceed at a leisurely pace along the rolling paved trail to the lookout. (If you want to race to the lookout, feel free, I’ll be there at a leisure pace.) Be prepared for some gravel riding (short) as we cross to the other side of Lynn Creek for lunch will be at the Lynn Canyon Cafe.
Meet: Olympic Village, Terra Breads
Time: 9 AM Olympic village, 10:15 Demonstration Forest
Ride Leaders: Colin
Route: Here
Distance: 65 km
Many thanks to Colin for leading 10 of us up to the Seymour Demonstration Forest. This car-free path is one of the treasures of Vancouver. The dip in temperature was not entirely unwelcome, as it’s a work out getting there, but the cold ensured we did not tarry going back. If my nose is growing, it’s because of icycles forming. Sorry Cam and I didn’t hang around for lunch, but that’s what ingrates do.
