Eagle Ridge - Westwood Plateau Riding Area

Motorambler (Art) suggested that we start a regular meeting place every Sunday morning to ride this area, similar to Bruces Country Market. I think this is an excellent suggestion. I get a little tired of riding the same place all time so if we had regular meeting spots for breakfast, maybe the Cultus Lake Golf course for the Church Mtn area, Bruces for east and west Stave and some place in Pt Moody for Eagle Ridge that would be really cool. Who's interested?

On Friday, Franhoser & I met at Timmies on Falcon & Lougheed (Barnett) Hwy. That works for me as a meeting place, though maybe there's something better?

That's probably about as good as any. I'm not that familiar with Pt Moody so I'll go along with what ever you local guys think is best.

We need somewhere where they serve eggs and hash browns. I think there is a restaurant rightnear timmy's that might work. I hate riding on a breakfast of donuts and coffee, makes me want to give out tickets.:D

Hey Ron, I couldn't agree more. A complete menu is definitely the way to go for me, what do you have in mind?

Alex's suggestion is the best, I reckon. Good food reviews for the place & it opens at 6am 7 days a week :)

Who's up for meeting at the Coquitlam Grill this Sunday morning? I suggest we meet at 10:00AM and then head up Eagle Ridge but I'm certainly open to other ideas.

Maybe...also the flat tire social on Sunday if I am not mistaken but I want to get out for a ride and my friend bought a new pumpkin and we need to go and get it dirty.

I will let you know what we decide but 10 on Sunday is a good time as the mountain is so close we don't have to get up so early......

I'll be there Sunday morning, though I'd prefer 9am. I think 10am is a bit late, don't you think?

Maybe a mod can change the title of this thread to resemble the Bruce's thread?

Casual coffee/breaky Coquitlam Grill

Whaddya guys think?

I like it Art, set it up and let's do it. 9:00AM is just fine, I'll see you at the "Grill" then.

There's a guy named Tim who calls himself loggin and said he was interested in exploring Sylvester with me. I told him about the Bruce's situation and suggested we could meet there. I'll try to find out if he wants to ride Eagle this Sunday. The more the merrier!

I'll be buying tires this Sunday(flat tire social), so can't make it. I will venture that way for a breaky/ride 'cause I seem to remember taking a honda civic through some of those areas when I was .....Hmmmmm........... in highschool:stupid:.

Cheers, Alex.

I just noticed OTGs post re the 10:00AM starting time. I do prefer 10:00 because as OTG says we don't have to get up so early, but I also want to be accomodating to others who want to start earlier. For me it's not important at all what time I get home and as the days are getting longer we now have more than enough time to ride with the later start. So, if somebody has to be home earlier I'm fine with 9:00, but if that's not an issue then I'd prefer 10:00.

For anybody who is not familiar with Eagle Ridge and doesn't get Phoenix's joke re the Civic this is NOT a "C" trail area and if he did take his Civic down one of those trails (no way he'd take it up) it's pretty safe to assume it's still there. Come to think of it I did see an old rusty beater Civic stuck there. It was filled with empty beer cans, roach clips, and an old Playboy magazine so maybe he wasn't joking. Hey Alex, ya want yer magazine back??? LOL

I'm ok with either time, to be honest. There's a chance I might be in Sooke this weekend, but I won't know for sure til Friday.
