All those who use this cycling loop listing do so at their own discretion. The cyclist must consider seasonal road conditions and natural hazards when traveling along routes. Extra care must be taken when riding with children, as traffic is heavier along the highways. During the summer months highway routes also experience an increase in traffic due to tourism and summer activities. It is mandatory that helmets be worn in BC. Roadside activities must consider water levels and regulations (provincial fisheries). Please leave the countryside as you found it or better.
Have fun and be safe!
