This is completely wrong information, I am happy to tell you. The Galloping Goose Trail on Vancouver Island is a WONDERFUL, world class trail for biking AND walking in the summer. The views are SPECTACULAR; the sun is not too heavy. WHile it gets very warm, the entire trail has shade due to the trees. I have written all about the Galloping Goose Trail on Vancouver Island, with illustrations: see http://averagejoecyclist.com/?p=551 and http://averagejoecyclist.com/?p=669

Average Joe - the original question is nine years old. But I guess it was nice that you were able to find a question to answer and promote yourself at the same time.

There are certain aspects of modern life that really annoy me.

Self-publicists are one.

Hey I'm an below average joe and I enjoyed the site-Thanks for the link.

If Fodor's leaves questions open for that long it's their problem.
