Description:

"it is not neccessary to be strong, but to feel strong". So in that spirit lets save a minute quantity of CO2 emitions and bike to long hike. Everyone is welcome, if you can commute to UBC, you can probably get to squamish with enough resolve.

To do this trip you need a working bike with slick tires (unless you think you can do it on knobbies). You probably also need a rear carrier although you can probably organize for others to bring up your stuff. You also need a strong pair of legs. I'll take care of the technical stuff such as bike repair etc.

See you on the road.
