Gravel Segment
From Skyline Dr to Borthwick Rd, North Vancouver, Metro Vancouver, British Columbia
Completed this Oct 23rd, 2023. Wouldn't advise taking Mosquito Trail from Palisade Dr. to Powerline Trail. Had to climb with my bike on my back and hike-a-bike most of it. Had to push the bike from Prospect Rd to the top of Powerline Trail, but would advise starting here anyway. Skid Row is rough enough, but I was able to bike it (somewhat) comfortably with 38mm tires. I struggled on Baden Powell from Skid Row to Lower Cripple – maybe that's my inexperience – but Baden Powell is fun from Lower Cripple until toward the end (somewhere between Kilmer & Lower Ladies). Toward the end - walked the (gravel) bike down, as an eMTB came past; "Must be rough on that bike!", he says to me! :D
