I'm in White Rock, right near east beach. You probably already know this, but if you're down near the water, the best way out of here by bicycle without killing yourself on one of those nasty hills is eastbound on Marine drive. At the first roundabout you can figure out where you want to go from there.

I see the odd brave soul climbing one of the hills with a bike, but most locals go around.
