I was able to leave my packed-up car in the driveway while I went for a ride. I headed east first.
The paved trail ended, but it was still rideable.
No trucks on the bumpy wooden bridge – good idea!
I turned around after 9 miles and headed back but continued on to get more miles. At a fork in the trail, a sign pointed to downtown Victoria. and the Empress Hotel and Inner Harbor were just 3 miles away. Let’s go!
A bicycle counter! At 11:30 am, 1180 bicycles had already passed by.
Cycle tracks made riding in the city so safe.
No high tea for me. Time to ride back, load the bike, and drive to The Butchart Gardens.
