Pfft, real men do the Duffey Lake Rd (Hwy 99) all the way up to the end then loop down through Cache Creek or Spences Bridge :P The pavement is rubbish (frost heaves ) but it's ranked DH3 for a reason Our club have done the canyon (Hwy 1) one year; I keep rolling the windows down every time we hit these tunnels and go through them full-throttle.... Ended up using twice as much gas as everyone else :P

Well, I've shown you the 3 routes in your area, complete with Google Maps. Make a day trip out of them!

Yep, that's me. That's where I work. Oh yeah, the car is getting driven alright, it's too awesome not to drive it BTW if Ben Collins WAS The Stig, who IS The Stig? Hmm

I thought it was a bit long (1750km or around 1100mi) for "normal" people so I went myself :P Still, if anybody wants to go again sometime next year.... BTW, you have the right car, what's stopping you from taking a trip?

Great pictures!!!!
Yeah, but notice how all those pictures weren't taken in Vancouver We do have a pretty awesome backyard though. Though, if you like these drives, may I suggest Kelowna instead?
