It won't calculate from the UK, but when I get back home to PG it's 798 km. Quesdad must be on the south side of PG. He's 15km closer. Apparently it takes 9 hrs 59 minutes according to Google. I usually figure on 8-1/2 unless there's a blizzard happening.

Nice to see someone from Grand Forks. I spent 8 years there & there were not many Lions ( or CFL ) fans at that time.

You are either doing that drive and including the Port Mann Bridge travel (wait) time, or doing the Coquihalla in mid winter..... :lol:

A flight from Saskatoon, a layover and switch of planes in Calgary followed by a stop in Maple Ridge, via Abbotsford, for a few sodas and a couple days. All in all a good trip and good fun. Hope to be back out sooner rather than later.

1.8 km - about 3 mins (south side of False Creek).

I usually walk to games though so it's actually a shorter distance, but slower.
