Gold River (2016-06-24)

Gold River

A hearty group of 12 riders departed from Elk Portal in Strathcona Park west of Campbell River for an 84 km ride to and from Gold River.  Lunch was at the Clayworks Cafe and Gallery, after which we tackled the 10 km stretch of mostly uphill, but after reaching Crest Lake we had the wind behind us and a great ride back to our vehicles. It was a wonderful day for a ride as the temperature was in the high teens and, best of all, rain did NOT make an appearance!   As well, we are proud of Angela for doing some curbside recycling!  

Our route is shown here.
