A Great Bike Trip Continues!
The famous July 4th bike trip is going back to Victoria, Canada! Plans are to drive to Port Angeles on Wednesday, July 2, take the 12:45 pm (or 5:15 pm) ferry to Victoria with only our bicycles (current valid passport required for entry to/from Canada).
We will check in at our rooms at the University of Victoria in Victoria (in single bedrooms in suites with bathrooms and kitchens). For the next three days, we will ride bicycles on Vancouver Island – The Galloping Goose Trail, the Lochside Trail, the Interurban Rail Trail, and possibly more. Then we will take the 10:30 AM ferry back to Port Angeles on Monday, July 6 and drive back to Portland. T
The cost for lodging is only $405 per person — a real bargain for Victoria! We plan to have at least one potluck dinner – perhaps more. You can sign up below starting Wednesday, May 6 by 8 AM. Limit is 16 people – this trip usually sells out quickly! Read about last year’s trip in the Sept. 2025 newsletter and check out the photos.
