A great shot of Vancouver

[SilvrT]

Vancouver city center, Coal Harbour, and the north shore mountains.

 

Spectacular!

Way down in the middle of those tall buildings is where I work ... errrr, I mean, put in time and get paid for it LOL

[eagleeye]

WOW, that is awesome

Been to Vancouver a couple of times. Ate at a revolving restaurant in a tower once at night. Really beautiful view from there.

I can assure everyone ya don't want to be on any kind of two-wheels in metropolitan Vancouver ... wayyyy too many cages and crazy drivers from all parts of the world who bring their native country driving habits with them. Vancouver and area is a "mecca" for immigrants from all corners of the world, mostly from various parts of Asia.

 

Now, get to the outlying areas and it's awesome!

 

In the 14 years I have lived here, I generally "head for the hills" when I go riding. Just getting from home to there is a scary trip.

With you on this one BIG time! Spent many years riding and driving in Vancouver...won't do it any more! Too many people with 'cracker jack' driving licenses spending much too much time looking at their phones instead of where they're going. Give me the open road and spectacular scenery (which we have a lot off) any day! Appreciate you posting the great shot of our little town for those who have not had the opportunity to visit.

Imagine the great bike roads that are out in them hills. I do remember you leading us on a "short cut" that involved riding past traffic on the sidewalk for a few blocks.

While we're on the scenic pics...the attached picture is of an area north of Vancouver BC on the Duffey Lake Road circuit taken while on one of my flights into the north. We have a multitude of such areas throughout our province...all just waiting to be viewed!

I've actually seen that exact picture form that exact vantage point several times (ie: airborne)

Wife and I went up to 100 mile house in her van for a game dinner. On the way back on the Duffy Lake road she would not listen to me ( not that she ever does) or let me drive and burned the brakes up. Fortunately we had a bottle of water in the van and I put out the fires. THEN she let me drive the rest of the way down the hills.

Those switch-backs are wicked!

Yeah, but they sure are fun. passed a 30 motorhome trying to negotiate one of the hairpins. Took him about 20 min to make a 260 point turn.
