If you live on Vancouver Island, you know that there is only one way to drive from Victoria to Duncan, except there isn’t…

If you like driving, you can continue up past Sooke, and almost to Port Renfrew where there there is a road that cuts across the island to Cowichan Lake. The road is paved all the way, and it is a great drive. Most of the road is only two lane, but there was almost no traffic, so that was not an issue. For the most part, the road is easy to read, and the really slow corners are marked (except for a couple I hit a bit faster than I wanted to. Thank goodness for sticky tires)

The route is very well marked so you won’t get lost, but there are a few places that are a bit rough. No potholes, but some bumps in the road. If you have really low ground clearance you may have to pay attention.

The weather today was a bit mixed. When I stopped in Jordan River to take a few photos, the sky opened up and I did get a bit soaked. Later the sun came out and provided some great light.

I have to make this a more regular drive. It was fun
