Vancouver Race Details
We will be staying at "Place Vanier" (one
of UBC's dorms)
Directions to UBC (Place
Vanier) from Portland:
Take Interstate 5 North to the Canadian Border.
Continue north for 40 minutes on Highway 99. Highway 99 turns into Oak Street at
The Oak Street Bridge. The Oak Street Bridge is 6 km north of the Massey Tunnel;
the airport is on your left. At the north end of the bridge, take the
second

and start heading west, where you see an overpass. Bear to the right here and go
up to merge with Granville Street. Stay on Granville as it turns to the
north.
Turn left onto 70th Ave, the second light and first
main intersection.
In two blocks, 70th becomes S.W. Marine Drive.
Follow SW Marine Drive for approximately 15 km (10 miles, it curves North). From
S.W Marine Drive: Turn right at University Blvd. (Gate 6.) Follow University
Blvd to Lower Mall (the first top sign). Turn left at Lower Mall. Place Vanier
is located on the left side of Lower Mall. For a slightly different route, you
