Triangle Beach, Off Road Playground

Sometime in November last year, the leaves were still on the branches, we took a drive and than a walk looking for this hidden beach in Richmond, BC we heard about from a friend. We tried once already, but missed it. This time we got it the right way, and we were up for a surprise: this is a playground for off road driving, dirt biking, sand driving and such. We couldn't believe our eyes. It's just off Steveston Highway practically behind the Silver City Theatres. It's nothing too spectacular, but having a place to play with your motor bikes or off road vehicles right in the City is kinda cool. These are the images I got at the place. It was fun.


The first few images are from our walks prior to finding the beach. We first ended up going the opposite way.

It's always fun when you don't quite know where you are going and what you are gonna see.

After a small industrial complex, there was this open field waiting to be discovered...

Judging by the picture, you would never tell it is in a city, although it's right in an industrial area of Richmond.

Fraser river and boats... the usual...

Behind this industrial complex there is the end of the Shell Trail...

Than we turned around and ended up here...

Something in this contrast of natural and industrial is exciting to me...

The oposite side of the view across the branch of the Fraser River...






Between the bushes and the fence, there is actually a dirt track...


And here is the beach...  
Some action...

More action...

And more...

It was fun wathing them zoom by...

Some archival shots...

It was pretty loud too...

The dirt track along the fence...

The boys were showing off...

Big time...

And then some...

Love the dirt!

It was cool!
