How is the bike ride from Nanaimo to the West Coast?
It’s bad until Port Alberni. Then it’s much worse. It’s not neccessarily the mountains it’s the lack of a real shoulder on the #4 highway. We recommend taking the Lady Rose Ferry up the Alberni inlet or the Tofino Bus. In six years of running this place I’ve only known 3 people to ever ride back to Port Alberni after riding here.
