Lunch

Before you begin a day full of biking adventures, it helps to first fuel up with a healthy lunch! Altmaerker Deli in North Delta offers a variety of fine German meats and cheeses, or fill up on one of their hearty homemade soups. They also have delicious freshly baked pretzels and German pastries to choose from to sweeten your meal or bring along for your trail-ride snack.

There are also shorter, easier trails for beginners in this itinerary, too. Choose from many different side trail options with this itinerary to appeal to different skill levels and adventure time-frames.
