Pre-reg here

Some controls will require staring at signs and scrambling in the dark to find stickers. Be prepared!!

There are no en-route services between Mission and Maple Ridge, so make sure you pack enough water and food.

From the pre-ride:

• This route is not a horrifically difficult route. But neither is flat. There are some hills.
• The pre-ride was done by those who were (self-described) "out-of-shape" - so you can do them too.
  There is no shame in walking a hard hill.
• There are some rough railroad track crossings. Cross them at a safe angle!
• Pizza 24 has amazing pizza. We shared a small pizza (shahi paneer). But they are very busy, so order in advance
  (Étienne recommends right before you climb the 272nd St. hill)
• Despite being a night ride, many sections are well lit with street lighting.
• It was cold at night, but as long as you keep moving, it generally doesn't get super cold - especially with some climbing :)
• In general, Étienne likes to send you down cool roads. But this means there may be many cues. However, the route is pretty straightforward, so don't sweat it.
