I'll be in Whistler on Sunday for a few days, and I'm trying to maximize my riding there so will be bringing my lights. I'm reasonably familiar with most valley trails (although Lost Lake trails earn their name every time i hit them) but I'm wondering if any locals have suggestions for a nighttime loop.

Thanks!

Being cheap is OK. Being a clueless sanctimonious condescending douchebag is just Vlad's MO.

I find pretty much everything is ok at night as long as you're not pushing it, and have a good helmet and handlebar light combo.

this, ride something you know and isn't too hard IMO. Fun to head out for a ride at 10pm once in awhile haha, i've only done lost lake zappas and cat scratch-mandatory-mels.. other than that just put on lights at the end of a ride when losing light.

I need to break in my new lights sometime soon….I'd say interpretive forest trails might be good too, ridge trail from loggers lake maybe…

Depending on your lights and your own ability to see at night, any trail.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.
