New from BC

[Allout]

Hello all from Vancouver Island BC Canada. I am new to owning an ebike but I have been waiting 6 months to purchase one. I have been riding mountain bikes for well over 30 years and bikes in general for well over 50 years. I am not a snob when it comes to riding bikes, ride what makes you happy. I have ridden road, gravel, fat, XC, Single speed, Enduro and downhill bikes and enjoyed every one of them. I currently own a 2019 Specialized Stumpjumper, 2015 Specialized Fatboy (used for snow and bikepacking), and now a 2022 Giant Reign E+1. Cheers

Love the island! Such a magical place and soooo much riding. Have fun on that new whip! Looks to be a top choice for '22

Thanks and will let you know if I head over there soon. I only rode Westwood lake once like 10 years ago…
If you use FB, there is a new group created called Vancouver island emtb group ride, hope to get more emtb group rides to explore the island.

My Son & family now live in Naniamo, just off of Jingle Pot. I use to live there about 40+ years ago in some crappy condo overlooking the river in Bowen Park. Also Lived in Comox valley until the Burke Mountian trails called me.
