Let's Go — by interest, coast to coast

Biking.

Gravel and glory.

Bike-packing routes, city networks that actually connect, and the shops that'll patch you up before you know you're bleeding.

What's good, nationwide.

4 picks

Flat, uninterrupted, and lined with breweries. Rent a bike at Atwater Market and ride to LaSalle.

A five-kilometre man-made peninsula that turned into an accidental bird sanctuary. Bring water, no bike after 4pm on weekends.

The Stanley Park beach locals actually go to. Bring firewood on a summer Friday.

Skate the river when it freezes. Warming huts every kilometre, hot chocolate at The Forks.
