Synopsis
More than 35 cycling routes across 13 Gulf and San Juan islands combine scenic riding with practical route information.
Cycling the Islands guides riders through island routes in British Columbia and Washington State, including Salt Spring, Pender, Mayne, Galiano, Gabriola, Denman, Hornby, Quadra, San Juan, Lopez, Orcas, Whidbey and Shaw.
Each adventure includes a map and practical information on local history, topography, road surfaces, route condition, difficulty, start and end points, checkpoints and places of interest. Full-colour photographs add visual context for riders planning day trips or longer island explorations. The combination of route detail and local context helps cyclists understand both the ride itself and the communities and landscapes through which it passes.
Clear organization and an emphasis on usable route information make the guide suitable for cyclists who want to combine active travel with the distinctive landscapes, communities and ferry-linked geography of the Gulf and San Juan islands.
