Matsqui Trail

A break in the rain today allowed us to get out for a bit of a ride this afternoon. We took the whole family out to the mission bridge,and rode along the Matsqui Trail for an hour or so. I was the only unicyclist today, but I'm anticipating that my wife and son might attempt an easy trail like this by this one by the end of the summer.

This trail runs right along the river, and so is nearly level. It is gravel, but well packed, and easy to ride. The trail is quite long, and probably runs for about 15km at least (that is from Mackenzie park to the west, to the northern end of upper sumas mountain road to the east - the trail may easily continue beyond that at each end, but I'm not sure) Oh, and parking under the mission bridge apppears to be free!

It was an easy ride, but a welcome change of scenery for me - and i was pleased to get out somewhere new for a change.
