The person I was supposed to go riding with cancelled on me today so I have to figure out how to get from Langley to seymour. I'm going to take a bus from Langley central to surrey central and then the skytrain, but after the skytrain I'm lost. Anyone know which stop to get off at and where to go after I get off the skytrain???

Okay had to edit this. I tried out the trip planning thing (from PoCo to the bottom of Seymour) and it puked out errors for me...something about "trip would require too many transfers or take more than 3 hours"

So. Take skytrain to Waterfront station, then jump on the seabus which takes you to Lonsdale Quay. Not sure what bus you would take, but if you used the trip planning thing from there it should work.

Thanx, but I can't get it to work for me. It keeps telling me theres too many transfer points to work or it won't recognize any of my starting points or destinations. But thanx anyway

Ya I think I've given up on the idea of riding seymour today. If I left now I wouldn't get home till around 9:00 and I still have other things I need to take care of today. But we'll have to get something together with Ouch! and Lancepaydirt next weekend.

ive ridden from the lonsdale quay lots of times to fromme. never to seymour. but i frankly think that seymour would be easier. its more distance but less uphill. you could skip keith road and go lower. brooksbank is where john henry is and its like a 10 min drive from seymour. i say go for it.

if i can ride from the lions gate bridge to the top of fromme 6 (3 there, 3 back) in 4 days on my banshee scream you could do it easily i'd say.

its pretty obvious. if theres skytrain take it to waterfront and then seabus across. if there's not almost (if not all) cities have a bus to vancouver. if tsawwassen does, langley sure as hell does.

Hey Skissors, I live in Langley and my usual ridding partner has decided that he is going to start to work weekends (my days off) if you want to go for a ride shoot me an email.
