Lochside Trail to Sidney , Canada
Sequim Bike Group take a trip from Victoria to Sidney on the Lochside Trail.
Lochside Trail: Victoria to Swartz Bay ferry terminal
A bicycle ride from downtown Victoria to the Swartz Bay ferry terminal near Sidney via the Galloping Goose and Lochside trails. This was recorded not long after the new Johnson St. Bridge opened, which significantly improves the connection from downtown to the Galloping Goose trail. Some of the newer bike infrastructure featured:
0:05 Pandora Ave protected bike lane
3:30 Johnson St. Bridge
16:17 Connector at Mackenzie Ave/Reynolds
1:16:08 Fresh kermit at the BC Ferries terminal
I had a few stops along the way which I edited out, so you'll see the shadows suddenly lengthen and the time jump ahead once in a while.
This was recorded on on an electrically assisted cargo bike carrying about 200lbs of cargo (in addition to me and the bike self, bringing the total weight to around around 500lbs).

Lochside Trail: Why You Should Hop on Bike Right Now
Go ahead... hop on a bike (or just put your walking shoes on). South Vancouver Island's Lochside Trail just got smoother with 1.7 kilometres of freshly paved pathway between Island View Road and Mount Newton X Road.
The Lochside Trail runs 29 kilometres from the Swan Lake Christmas Hill Nature Sanctuary to the Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal, parallel to Patricia Bay Highway 17. By improving trails like this, we hope to encourage more people to leave their cars at home and practise their pedal power.
On a recent warm, sunny morning, we visited the newly paved trail (used to be gravel) to film cyclists, walkers and runners. Some people were biking to work, others were pedaling to the ferry for a Gulf Islands vacation, and more still were just enjoying the exercise.
Have a look for yourself. If you're in the area, why not hop on your bike and ride it for yourself, too?
