Cycling Vancouver Island, British Columbia - 330km South Island Gravel Grind
To celebrate Canada's 150th birthday I set out on a 3 day, 330km bike trip using the newly connected Great Trail as my road. I was able to ride from Downtown Victoria to Nitinat Lake on Vancouver Island's West Coast with barely 30 minutes spent on pavement. Using the tiny community of Caycuse on the far end Lake Cowichan as my base camp I could travel ultra lite and focus on enjoying my time in the saddle, taking in the unrivalled beauty that this island has to offer.
The ride back was split between between trail and road, skirting Shawnigan Lake and crossing the beautiful Saanich Inlet by ferry, before finishing my trip with a short climb up to the Victoria Observatory in West Saanich. Vancouver Island truly is a gem.

What better way to tour the cycling capital of Canada than by bike?
Victoria BC is a very bicycle-friendly city, with lots of designated bike lanes, bike-storage facilities (there's even one located at Parkside!) and great biking trails available.
Whether you decide to cruise around town and out along Dallas Road to Oak Bay or head down the Galloping Goose trail out towards Sooke, make sure you know the rules of the road and ride prepared.
Cit-E-Cycles Electric Bike Shops in Canada (Victoria, Vancouver, Surrey, Langley)
I moved to Vancouver Canada in 2018 and established EBR there while filming reviews and making friends in the area. This video features a shop called Cit-E-Cycles which now has three locations in the British Columbia province. The founder, Mark Moor, met with me to walk through some of the different models and even share a tour of his family home. His daughters both have ebikes, and had a blast riding around the neighborhood. I got to speak with his wife and kids about their ebike experiences and even see the kids riding around the neighborhood.
Cit-E-Cycles carries many e-bike brands including:
- Ruffian
- CUBE
- Pedego
- Surface 604
- Haibike
- Specialized
- GoCycle
We visit Mark's house at 3:54 and talk to his daughter about her ebike at 7:45 and then jump on the trampoline at 12:01
Cit-E-Cycles have shops in Vancouver, Surrey, Vancouver, and Langley. Their website is and phone number is 1-855-557-7900 (toll free) you can email them at info@citecycles.com

This week Tim took me on a surprise outing. We decided to avoid the crowds of people in downtown Victoria for Canada day and head out of town. We packed up the bikes and headed towards Sooke. All I knew was that we were going to ride the Galloping Goose Trail. I actually didn't realize that the Galloping Goose trail ran through Sooke Potholes all the way to Leechtown. It is a beautiful and doable bike ride. Leechtown is a place where a town used to be. It was a gold mining town. The bike trail goes alongside the Sooke River.
We packed a lunch and some waters and stopped along the way to refuel a couple of times with our packed lunch and even to take a little nap along the the river.
The galloping goose trail is part of the Sea to Sea Green belt, a large corridor of protected wilderness and parkland. These spaces are not just enjoyed by humans such as Tim and myself, but also by cougars, bears and elks. It is such a gorgeous trail with stunning views of the river and the forest.
If you made it all the way to the end give yourself a thumbs up and put ¨Happy Trails to you” in the comments.
