If you are ever in the market for top notch rain pants or booties, Taiga makes the best I've found so far. They also have a great selection of other rain gear, warm gear, etc. Of course the weather has finally turned but I'm posting this just in case winter comes back!!!

FYI, items made locally in Vancouver. If the bottom of your booties wear out, they can easily fix them up for you in no time flat. No need to buy another set, just repair the bottom.

Wouldn't it be nice if Amtrak had a system like this...travelling from Vancouver to Portland would be even nicer.

Officers also clarify cyclists' rights on Twitter to dispel misconceptions held by some drivers about the law

We are not alone...crazy close calls from the UK. My take = ride like you are invisible and expendable!!! Many drivers just don't care and will do whatever crazy and unsafe act to pass you! Ride safe folks.

If you think we have cry baby hills to contend with around the Lower Mainland, check out this video of Stage 17 of the Tour de France to be used in July 2018. Incredible scenery. Maybe good for a VBMG weekend ride, ha ha ha!!!

Stage 17 will cover just 65 kilometres - but there a three cols to get up, including the finish on the Portet
