Description
- We will meet at Valleyview Arena at 0900 to carpool out to Sorrento.
- We will cycle along the southside backroad along Shuswap Lake through Eagle Bay to Wild Rose bay. Bring a bike lock to walk to lakeshore for lunch (approx half km walk) or walk your bike on the narrow dirt trail. We will take breaks en route as required.
- A pretty lakeshore low traffic route passing a couple of small stores for supplies. Views of Copper Island and several beach access points.
- Ride is approx 70 Km but can be shortened to 50 Km by parking at Blind Bay shopping centre.
- Road bikes or hybrid bikes only; moderately paced ride for experienced riders. Participants should bring repair supplies and tools, plus extra clothing.
Be prepared to pay your driver $10 if you choose to carpool.
I have been retired for several years now and enjoy many activities in the outdoors such as hiking, cycling, skiing, backpacking. I have lived in Canada for the last 35 years and spent a great deal of time exploring the Rockies, K-country, Kootenays and parts of BC.
I get out on a hike, ski or cycle ride several times a week either with the club or family and enjoy running multi day trips as well as day outings.I will lead fairly strenuous, moderate to steady paced outings as well as some starter outings.
