I immediately went to the google.com/transit site to look for the cycle "button" hoping to find that the optimum bike route could be selected. Well, there's a car, public transit and a walk option on google transit, but nothing about cycling. Bummer! I can only assume she meant if you were cycling you'd take the "walk" route. Not! I don't ride on the main streets of Vancouver because it's tantamount to suicide, and if you want directions from the east side to UBC, the map uses all the main routes - no side streets where Vancouver has actual "bike routes."
