Travel info:
 
We recommend racers come over to Hornby the day before the race if they can as Hornby Island is served by a very busy ferry system that often has long line-ups. Those hoping to come over on the day of the race will be taking their chances as there is no predicting what the traffic will be like. There are late ferries on Friday night, with the last ferry that will get you to Hornby leaving  Buckley Bay at 9:30. 
 
A note: on Saturday and Sunday the last ferry off of Hornby is at 6:00 p.m. As long as you are in the lineup by 6:00 the ferry will run to get you off that night. 
 
The race site is at the very end of Strachan Road. To get there, follow the main road all the way around the Island. At the Co-op store intersection (the only 4 way stop on the island), take a right and head toward Ford Cove. After about 3 km, turn right onto Strachan Road and follow it to the end where you will find the race site. 
Be aware, after about 800 meters on Strachan Road, a much larger road, Marylebone Road, turns left, don’t get fooled into taking it, stay on Strachan.  
 
 
On-Island Accommodation
We will be providing 50 camping spots in Strachan Valley at the race site. The camping is simple with cold running water and outhouse only. Please bring your own toilet paper and pack out your garbage.  
Camping is cash only,  $10 per person for one night, $15 per person for two. Kids 15 and under camp free.  To reserve a spot please email camping@electrom.ca
The Strachan valley camping area will open at 6:00 pm on Friday. Riders can stay until late Sunday afternoon. 
 
Tribune Bay Campground may have some space as well. https://www.tribunebay.com/reservations/
