I'm sad to see the reddit community gone, and this one inactive! I hope this place ends up getting some traffic!

A long-time childhood friend and I took a trip on Vancouver island last year, and bombed around a ton of service roads. There was actually an INCREDIBLE mishap that happened not long after we crossed that bridge. The road was completely closed barely 5 km from where it was supposed to meet up with pavement again, with a giant open pit where they'd installed a huge culvert and hadn't gotten around to covering it again.

After a failed attempt to get my bike across, we ended up having to ride 80 km back the way we came. Makes a great story though!

The same buddy and I are heading off on another trip pretty soon- He's got a fancy used BMW now, though, and I'm still on the 20-year-old KLR!

Now that's what I'm talking about!! What an adventure! Thanks for sharing.

Have fun on the next ride, and come back to post your ride report. We'll be here waiting!
