I have ridden Seymour several times but now its starting to get repetative...I'm riding the same trails.

I usually start at CBC, then do Corkscrew, Pingu, Pangor or just turn right after upper corkscrew and ride Ned's.

Does anyone have any other intermediate difficulty combinations? The only other trails I know of are Boogyman and Severed Dick.

I'm not asking for secret trails, just some other trails or combinations I can ride.

also, what is Willy's way and how to u get to it (I saw it on the map but I have no idea how to get to it).

are there any long beginner XC/light freeride trails...I took my friend up and he had a tough time on CBC and Ned's (Pangor was ok)...are there any fast flowy trails I can take him on?

Will's way isn't much, just a few decrepit stunts, and it puts you out in an odd place. There's not much left in the way of XCish trails, unless you are doing the old bridal path thing. The best trail on the hill is cuntbuster, IMO. Severed is great and always brings a smile to my face.

Brother's creek has some nice XC stuff, but I couldn't describe how to get to it, as the BP is such a freaking maze.

I'm pretty sure Brothers Creek is on Cypress..... Big Eye passes it.

You could always try TNT and Dale's Trail after CBC instead of Corkscrew. The only thing with Dale's is that it puts you out at an odd spot and if you want more riding it's a bit of a hike back up the powerlines. But you can then connect to Severed or C-buster like Diggler suggested. And yes, Brothers Creek is on Cypress. Some of the Bby Mtn trails might be an easier start for a new rider. You could also try the Watershed in Delta or UBC. Good luck!

Brother's Creek road is marked in District of West Van maps.

Take 21st road exit. Turn left on Chartwell. Keep going up following chartwell till you hit Millstream. You'll see Skyline trail on the left. That can be ridden xc all the way to the 3rd switchback of Cypress. Then follow Millstream going east for about half km going up and down till you see a gate and a trail going up to your left. That's Brothers' Creek. You can climb Brothers Creek all the way to the Blue Gentian area near Cypress. \

Where is TNT, how to you get to Dale's from CBC??? I thought Dale's started at that connector trail between the powerlines and Ned's (the one u take after u do Corkscrew to get to Ned's)

Also are there any advanced/intermediate trails on Seymour??? The only ones I know of are Boogyman and C**t buster

Yup, Will's Way is short and you have to work your way through Bridle Path to get to it. However, it is a nice diversion after humping through Bridle. Some trail angel has also adopted this trail and has put in some solid work.:)

For a reasonable x-country loop ride [IMO] which can take 1.5+ hours or so: Start at Old Buck parking lot -> Old Buck -> Lower Trail/Bridal Path -> Will's Way -> north on the Hyannis connector -> Bottle Top -> south along Twin Bridges road -> east up the widened Bridal Path and a] return east on Bridal Path, or b] return east via Hyannis Road -> Blair Range -> up west side of the golf course -> Bridal Path/Lower Trail -> new Empress re-route. Also great loop for nite-rides.
