yeah theres prob shuttles for resorts direct from the airport. or since ur bike will be packed up for the plane ride u could always take a bus downtown and take the train up or a greyhound bus.

The shuttles are way over priced, round trip if I remeber correctly was over $200 with your bike, they charge $65 just for bikes. Take a bus it's cheaper, it's a bit more work to get there because you have to take a shuttle service from the airport to the down town bus terminal. Go to the Whislter web page there are links there for shuttle services and bus service.
Good luck man, you should think about spending some time on the shore as well.

I'm sure someone would pick you up and drop you off at at Whistler if you could get to the shore….

65 bucks from airport to whistler buy perimeter bus…. best way to do it.

Try putting your bike in a hockey bag, and pass it as luggage.

hi all. (My first post..wow :rolleyes: )

As this topic nearly answers my question, I've to ask my question though.

I'm coming to Vancouver in July and of course I 'd like to ride the North Shore. BUT in lack of a car I asked myself how to get the easiest way to the North Shore from Downton Vancouver?.
Do you guys can give me some advices.

thanks.

You can ride. Its very close, you can take the seabus, bikes are allowed, its a 12 minute crossing across the harbour, land at lonsdale quay, where im pretty sure most of the busses should ahve bike racks by then. Take a bus up lonsdale and over to mtn highway somehow for GROUSE, i dont know the routes. Or take the bus from lonsdale to phibbs exchange depot right out to the base of seymour. Where you could hitchhike up or ride up to the trails.
