More than 100 cyclists tackled the 15-kilometre hill up to the Cypress Mountain Lodge during the second annual Rotary Ride for Rescue, a fundraiser for North Shore Rescue and Rotary-sponsored community projects, hosted by the Rotary Club of West Vancouver Sunrise, June 9. Pancakes and live music greeted cyclists at the top as well as a prize and award ceremony.
