From Dallas Road to Lochside Trail, there's no shortage of routes for a summer bike ride

With an abundance of longer trails and ever-expanding network of bike lanes in the core, Greater Victoria has earned itself a reputation as a cycling destination

Victoria is blessed with a ­climate that makes cycling pleasant most days, but in the summer, the region is ­practically begging to be enjoyed by bike.

At Pedaler Cycling Tours and Rentals on Belleville Street, the summer months can see lineups of up to 50 people waiting to get their hands on a bike. The store often recommends taking a coastal route around the region, which includes the Dallas Road bike path, Murphy’s favourite place to ride. Sidney makes for a great destination for lunch and a walk by the ocean to shake out the legs after riding for a couple of hours.

That said, riding the entire 55-kilometre Galloping Goose trail from Victoria to the ghost town of Leechtown, north of Sooke, is a goal for some.
