Sunday May 14 Bakery – Escargot Ride
Update May 5: Note the date change.
Instead of burning calories, this ride is about acquiring calories. Let´s do a bakery tour of the city! Bring capacious appetites and panniers, for holding all your precious baked goods. Good footwear is more important than a good bike, as this ride won´t require much time in the saddle. Pace is called escargot, because we´ll be lucky to break 20km/hr and you´ll be leaving a trail of saliva instead of slime. That swimsuit photoshoot for Sports Illustrated can wait for another year or six. I plan to check out the following bakeries just because, well, baking:
Brekka, Beyond Bread, A Bread Affair, Siegels Bagels, Terra Breads, Yandoux, and Purebread.
Meet: 6th and Arbutus at 10AM

Eight riders took 2 hours to travel 11km! That´s a successful escargot ride, folks. Lots of great food and fun poking around bakeries. The rolls and muffin tops were not just anatomical – they were display-case worthy. Vancouver also showed off its seascapes on this sunsplashed day. We ended the ride at the picnic tables on 5th and Ontario for some well-deserved noshing and where we got to meet David´s beautiful family. A big welcome to Nikki and Mark, new riders.
