Not much fun??? I just moved from North Van to Vancouver Island and I have plenty of fun. I've got a VP Free and my husband has a Demo9. You just need to know where to look, my friend. :)
Lift? My gf has recently gotten addicted and we are doing some touring to look for places to live. She is demanding a lift assisted (I love her) ski and bike area haha

Mt. Washington has lift access and is getting better every year. But there's also fantastic riding here on Forbidden Plateau, as well as in Nanaimo, Port Alberni, and Duncan.

Let me know if you're coming over this way. I'll give you the tour. :)

I'm planning the move out there sometime in early spring. I was supposed to go this winter but I figured there's not point in driving to the other side of the country during the winter...those prairies must be insanely snowy and cold. I don't know if I'll end up in Victoria or Vancouver first. I might end up in Vic just because of contacts I have there and cheap rent (although having a full DH bike on Vancouver Island won't be so much fun). I'm hoping for Vancouver though. I found a couple websites that look at apartments for rent in different areas. So far the eastside looks better but it depends where...some parts are REALLY ghetto from what I hear.

Lol. You should pick up a copy of Run for Your Life 1 and 2. Mostly island riding. NWD4? Some island shots. Duncan, Nanaimo, Parksville, Courtenay, Gold River. Its gold here, and no traffic. Courtenay has lift access (Mt Washington) which is expanding and rumors of a slopestyle park next year.
