About this event

  • 4 hours

Meet at the Golden Tree sculpture near Marine Drive Station in Vancouver at 10am. We expect to arrive at London Farm in Steveston sometime before noon, via Garden City Road, Granville Ave, and the Railway Greenway. We will offer a return ride to Vancouver for anyone who wants/needs it, potentially taking the West Dyke (gravel) or Crabapple Ridge (neighbourhood bikeway) back depending on group preference.

This ride is open to everyone and should be generally fairly gentle. The majority of the route will be in protected bike infrastructure, with the only slope being at the Canada Line Bikeway bridge.

June 8-9 are Doors Open days in Richmond, where several public buildings and community organizations are running open houses. We will be visiting the London Farm at the end of the ride, but if you would like to, feel free to take full advantage of the event after the ride.

If interested, RSVP here so that we can get an indication of how many people are coming. We have a limited number we can take as we need to ensure a safe ratio of volunteers with ride leadership & first aid training are available. A waiver is required for all participants, and included in the online reservation.

Frequently asked questions

Is this ride only for HUB members?

No, this ride is open to everyone, and free to participate.

Is this ride suitable for children?

The ride is about 14 km one way, and the bridge does require some strength to get over. Some kids might be able to do it, but it may be a little bit difficult.
