I spent most of the weekend reinstalling two operating systems and trying to get all my programs to work again and my computer setup the way I like it. This was because I wanted to reinstall Parallels, ended up getting a virus on Windows, and Time Machine did not work.
Anyways, before all that I went for a bike ride because it was nice and sunny for once.
Here's my route through Surrey and Delta. I like tracing routes on maps. I once walked through Delta Nature Reserve after walking over the Alex Fraser bridge and it looked like a great place to bike so I wanted to check it out.
Unfortunately once I got there I was stopped several times by giant puddles or expanses of mud which made me turn back and find another route. I guess biking through woodland in January is not a good idea.
Another thing that's not a good idea: Biking on wet boardwalk. This section is where my bike slid completely out from underneath me and I almost slid right off the boardwalk. I ended up on here because it was the only way to go unless I wanted to backtrack completely out of the park.
This is how I ended up leaving the park. It wasn't really ideal for biking but it was either carry my bike up here or slowly bike back along the boardwalk. I almost always prefer going onward over backtracking when I'm exploring new places. This park area will be much better when it gets drier although that won't happen for a long time, knowing Vancouver.
