What we’re about
About Us: We are a Social Cycling Group for Adults run by Volunteers.
Our Mission:
To bring people together to have fun and make new friends while safely exploring Metro Vancouver and the surrounding areas. This includes some rides to Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and into Washington State..
Our rides range from urban and suburban to rural, on bike friendly roadways, dykes and trails and, from a few hours to all day. Rides are generally easy to moderate in difficulty and may run from 50 to 90 km.
Our goal is for participants to arrive at the end of a ride happy and satisfied with the outing and their ride leaders.
Code of Conduct:
Our cycling group is committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment for all members. We expect all participants to conduct themselves with integrity, kindness, and respect towards others during rides or events run by this group. Members should adhere to all traffic laws, ride safely, and support fellow cyclists, ensuring that everyone feels welcome and valued.

I decided to try to get this ride in because the salmon spawning season is coming to an end. Not only is this a circle route, it's also about the circle of life.
From our starting point at the Gillnetter Pub, we follow the PoCo Trail east around Minnekhada and on to LaFarge Lake Park, where we stop for lunch. After lunch, we head west to Port Moody and Rocky Point Park, where we'll take a short break, maybe ice cream, before heading back to the PoCo Trail and the Gillnetter Pub. With luck, we will be able to see lots of spawning salmon in the Coquitlam River, in Hoy and Scott Creeks, and, for sure, in Noons Creek in Port Moody. Let's hope the weather holds.
Difficulty: Moderate if you have been biking regularly.
Distance: 52.8 km.
Estimated Ride Time: 5 Hrs
Bring: snacks/water and PACK A LUNCH. We will stop for lunch at Lafarge Lake Park. There is nowhere to buy anything at Lafarge Park.
