Pre-ride of route completed on April 19th. I've made some updates to make the return trip a bit more straight forward. Pre-ride was very sunny and weather mostly cooperated. Strong winds in the Sunshine Valley and some rain in Delta, but otherwise very pleasant.

The folks staffing the store at the RV park in Sunshine Valley are very nice and can provide basics such as high fructose corn syrup drinks, etc.

There was some construction between Hope and highway 1, which may not be complete by ride date. It's fully passable, just be mindful of it. As noted in the 300, the bike path on Annacis Island seems to be having some work done and there are boards covering the path. I'd recommend walking this.

As per last summer's 400, I'll bring my outdoor wok burner and make fried rice at about the 160km mark on this ride, which will be Memorial Park in Hope. This will give you a chance to refuel before the climb up to Sunshine Valley. Let me know in advance if you'd prefer lap cheong (dried sausage) or pressed tofu.
