Why do this ride: PoCo trails make for a great easy winter loop. Quarry Rd is bit of remoteness close to home, or at least it was remote before Widgeon Park got opened late 2025. Ride Quarry Rd before it gets paved (its in the Coquitlam capital plan).  The Widgeon Park trail is paved which gives it a bit of a mini-Seymour Demonstration Forest feel.

Difficulty: Easy to moderate, depending if you do Quarry Rd.

Other notes:  This route combines the standard Port-Coquitlam (PoCo) loop with Quarry Rd. Cut out about 14 km and most climbing without Quarry Rd. Quarry can get very gritty in winter and feel like riding in wet cement. At least, until they pave it. The new Widgeon Park portion is not part of the  GPX file and adds another 8k (4k out and back) but is relatively flat and paved.
