Arbutus Greenway and West 45th (East side)

EASY RIDERS — RIDE 5

we are set  to for another incursion into Burnaby. An enjoyable AAA ride (All Ages and Abilities). 

MEET AT  @ 10:00 am at  Arbutus Greenway and West 45th (East side)

Route:

We will head east along the 45 Avenue bike route (which takes in parts of 46 and 47th) to Central Park. Traversing the Park we will pick up the BC Parkway along Beresford and Edmonds and then turn South towards Byrne Creek to return via Rumble Street, the 59th bikeway and the Arbutus Greenway to our starting point.

The weather forecast for Tuesday promises relief from the searing heat of recent days. 20 degrees and some chance of shower.

Only a couple of significant hills on this route (Unless we decided for downhill adventures toward the Fraser River that will perforce exact payment  in the re-ascent; mostly we will descend the steepest declines,. 

Whether we drop  down to the Fraser or not, it is proposed that we reward ourselves with a stop at Adam’s Crepes, 5217 Rumble Street (Authentic French Crepes made with the freshest ingredients”), for refreshment and conversation after making the turn for "home".

Partners and e-bikes are welcome

Any emeriti (and/ or partners) interested in joining this ride please contact group convenor Graeme Wynn (wynn@geog.ubc.ca) before Monday Aug 1 who will provide further details.
