the Sea to Sky is coming to Nelson!!
Yup, this is my home turf! So, I’m pretty excited to show it off a little.. I put together a basic track map, with fuel stations and other important things marked on it. Just to get an idea of what you’re getting into! Keep scrolling for the download buttons…
So, here’s how the maps works. Everything is based on the type of riding surface. Colour-coded for your convenience! Green is paved, Blue is unpaved, and Red is spicy! It’s unpaved but either more technical or has something on it that may be trickier for some rider/bike combinations. I’m never going to make assumptions about your skill level or enthusiasm, you know you. Always ride to what you’re comfortable with.
There are waypoints for Camping, fuel, beer, motels, motorcycle shops, food, and cool places to see.
You can download it straight away and add it to any app or Garmin unit.
