you could get to the bottom of burke bye taking west coast express then catching the C38 bus from coquitlam station. then you will have to push your bike up coast meridian or if yyour lucky you someone will give you a ride up

From Port Moody station you could take one of the community buses up into Heritage (on Eagle). Not sure if they have bike racks though.

Umm...just realized something. Are you planning on doing an overnighter? Cause trains only run Westbound in the morning and Eastbound in the evening.

[ratherberiding]

yep, with a friend of mine. how are eagle and burke?

[Lady Gravity]

bring a snorkel if you're riding burke

[ratherberiding]

and eagle?

[trillion]

Burke is great. Mostly natural with some real ghetto stunts lower down the mountain. Never ridden it in the rain. Eagle is awesome, but very difficult.

so their is no way to get to woodlot on transit?
i want to ride platinum so bad ever since i saw it on drop in.

get ahold of the huckwagon. now that they have 2 vans I know they are sometimes running out to the woodlot-or have before.Tim still does the whistler trips and seymour but I think it is Colin who goes to the other places

But we plan to camp out their for a couple nights so how would we get home? Sounds like the woodlot idea is out of the question, what do you guys think is better, burke or eagle?

there's your route to the woodlot (14km, not too bad)
maybe search the translink website to see if you can get nearer by bus?

[Rat]

take transit to as far as you can go on the bus and ride your bikes from there. it would be a fun adventure. I wouldnt camp in the parking area but im sure you could find a spot on the mountain to set up a tent for a few days.

No sasquatch on woodlot, is their?

[bansheeair]

perhaps contact Maple Ridge Cycle and see if they can hook you up with someone. They have a huge riding club, they might have someone who can help you out with ride to the 'lot
