SSI O&B Ride
I started my road trip early, catching the bus at the end of San Juan Avenue just seconds before it arrived—perfect timing. After a quick transfer to the 72, I rode to the Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal and boarded the small ferry bound for Fulford Harbor on Salt Spring Island. I had no fixed plans, just a simple goal to explore the island and see what future e-bike trips might look like.Once there, I biked about six kilometers to Ruckle Farm, logging around 500 calories on my little road bike. The island was scenic but steep—definitely better suited for an e-bike next time. I stopped at a local store that had everything from sandwiches to wine, enjoyed a beef sandwich and a discreet Pilsner Urquell from my water bottle while listening to a pianist by the pier.Despite a few mishaps, it was a rewarding solo adventure full of music, good food, and the open road.
