One of the classic local rides near PEZ HQ, the 20km run from Capilano Road to Whytecliff Park near Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver BC winds along a jagged coastline marked with evergreen cedar and Arbutus trees. I joined the boys from Le Peloton CC for a Saturday ride that starts flat, rolling through historic neighborhoods, but the pace quickens after Deadman’s Curve as the hills start to pummel you with an unrelenting roundhouse of heart-pounding, acid burning fun. You might see stars before it’s over, but the serene views across Howe Sound are a just reward for any suffering to hold a wheel or push the pace. A must-do ride for any accomplished rider – drop me a line if you’re in town for a guided tour.
