The way points of this bicycle route:

Yarrow

Follow the Yarrow Central Rd. east past the stores to Poplar rd. (three liquer store here in one block, gas stations, convenience stores, video, pizza and other stores). You will also pass the Yarrow Central Park and Postal Office.

First turn

Turn left down Poplar Rd. to pedestian access to school grounds.

Cross school grounds

This is Yarrow Elementary. Cross the field and then around the school to the road.

Back on road

Turn left down road to the dyke.

Right turn on dyke

This section is only a couple hundred meters long on flat gravel road.

Left turn on to tracks

This part you have to walk the bike( 100m). The rocks along the tracks are very loose and riding is hard.

Cross the Vedder on train bridge

There is a walkway on the bridge made for pedestians and bikers. Good spot for jumping in the river on hot summer days. Must be a good swimmer, curent is strong.

Leaving tracks for dyke trail

I wish I could ride the rail road tracks from here it would take fifteen minutes off my commute. This part is very rough. Trail is bumpy and there are lots of rock in the road.

End of rough spot

This section is a nice flat ride on grave road. Very scenic. Benches and picnic tables. Access to the river is easy in many spots along this section.Popular with local residents for fishing and just hanging out at the river.

Easy crusing

Still the same as the last point.

Left turn on lickman

Start of road course. Dyke trail continues along the river to Vedder Crossing Bridge. Also a nice ride but not the way I go.

Right turn on S.Sumas Rd.

Look for the old western town on right side of road before you reach S.Sumas Rd. Not sure what it is but it has false fornts on the building that looks like a old western town.

Junk yard.

There is a cool looking junk yard place on the left side of road.

Left turn onto Vedder Rd.

This part of the road is long and flat. Moving into a rural setting

Vedder Rd to final destination

Vedder Rd. is very busy (lots of traffic). There isn't any bike lanes. I stay on the sidewalk.
