Itinerary:
Did you know bicycles are allowed on LRT trains after 5:30 on weekdays? Let's take advantage of this by doing an evening station to station conditioning ride! We will meet at 6:15 PM at the McKernan LRT Station and depart at 6:25 PM for a brisk, non-technical outing over mostly unpaved trails through the river valley. We'll cover about 22 km and our end point will be the Clareview LRT station. The goal and motivation is to make it to and from the event on a single 90 minute bus transfer each. Please bring enough money or bus tickets though to cover two LRT rides in case we don't meet the goal!

This is a conditioning ride. Please have at least a moderate level of fitness and be a fairly fast rider to join.

Required Items to Bring:
- Helmet (You can't come without one!)
- Mountain Bike or hybrid suitable for loose gravel and some bumps
- Water
- Money, bus pass or bus tickets to get you to the start and get back from the end of the ride.
Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:We will meet at the south end of the station, near the entrance to the tunnel under 114 Street
