Hiding from the stupid
I am planning an upcoming trip to Vancouver Island and Quadra Island and could use some help. I will be staying in Victoria, Heriot Bay and at an undetermined place in between, most likely Comox Valley or Campbell River. It isn't that I can't find information, quite the opposite. I am having trouble narrowing it down.

Can any one point me towards 3-4 super quality rides? I consider myself a strong technical rider but I will be riding alone so I don't want to over do it. I like the looks of some of the rocky ridge stuff I have seen and prefer natural terrain to built stunts. I am not afraid to climb. I have a feeling that some of the stuff that passes for XC in BC may be good. I will be riding a Knolly Chilcotin if that helps.

Any ideas on eats and things to do with the family would also be welcome. Thanks in advance for any help.

try posting on the nsmb board; lots of island folks on there. though i lived in victoria a couple years, i haven't spent much time riding mid-island. from what i hear it's a solid scene these days.
