I hiked up fromme and drove up seymour to bike down, the hike up fromme was well worth all the switchbacks to get to some SICK trails. I went by myself and ended up riding with a pack for both trips the other riders were super friendly

Did this 2 years ago: made it up in 1 hour and 10 minutes (in the rain no less)! Even with the overcast/foggy conditions, the view was incredible,, and I made a new friend on the way up (his wife opted to take the gondola ).

Note well though: Take LOTS of water, pace yourself, and wearing layers is advisable (I had a hoodie on above a t-shirt and an Underarmour heatgear shirt; by the end, I only had the Underarmour on, in spite of the light rain and temperature around +17c), and PACE yourself.

To those who take on the Grind, have fun!

If you want to hear about me flipping over my handlebars numerous times going down Seymour mountain, then I could write that! Otherwise, should probably wait for someone more experienced!

I’d love to see an article about biking the North Shore. Gotta make it to Vancouver someday…
