Weird question, but this is car forum where I would think most of you are auto-enthusiasts; I often can’t sleep till about 2:30am on hot summer nights and I hit the road!
I run Richmond by the airport, marine to spanish banks, making a huge loop ;)
Nothing beats Vancouver at night.

I would definitely be down for this in the summertime... It's awesome when you can go for a cruise that late and the weather is like 14+ degrees

Last summer when I still had a car I used to always do this. I use to drive to White Rock, and go for a walk when I needed to think.

My favorite midnight cruise involves downtown, highway 1 and marine drive: http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Stanley+Park+Causeway%2FBC-1A+N%2FBC-99+N&daddr=49.210551,-123.0242011+to:49.209022,-123.1404227+to:Stanley+Park+Causeway%2FBC-1A+N%2FBC-99+N&hl=en&geocode=FS5m8AIdrPio-A%3BFbfk7gIdt8yq-CkVsCIFd3aGVDHWafkW7U-BdA%3BFb7e7gIdugap-CkzQ9GklHSGVDEBKlXPhLeZvg%3BFS5m8AIdrPio-A&mra=dme&mrsp=3&sz=14&via=1,2&sll=49.291266,-123.122663&sspn=0.045848,0.111494&ie=UTF8&ll=49.260411,-123.11451&spn=0.183505,0.445976&z=12

At midnight, traffic almost non-existent so the cruise is pretty smooth.

When i feel like corners I usually do either North Van Marine Drive to Whytecliff or Clayburn road in Abbotsford. If i feel like a faster pace I run laps on hwy 99 into new west and back into richmond again and just circle around...

am i the only one that cruises at around 5-6am?
i love 5-6am because the skies are lit up. its not burning hot. pretty cool and the sky is lit up. im the only one on the road its really relaxing

but if we do have a late night meet im totally down :)

I used to go on these alllll the time back in the day, but haven't as much these past couple summers.

My fav route used to be - ready for this shit? -

Leave my place (when I used to live in Coquitlam):

- Head along Barnet Hwy into Burnaby/Vancouver.
- Head down Hastings till you get to the Hwy 1 on ramp. Take the North Shore exit
- Over 2nd Narrows/Iron workers memorial bridge and enjoy a 'healthy' rip all the way to Horseshoe Bay, right into Horseshoe Bay village. Usually I'll stop at Starbucks if they're still open to rock a piss and grab a drink.
- Cruise back along Marine Dr, enjoying the twisties (as much as you can at night anyway)
- Take the Lions Gate Bridge into Downtown (here you can take a cruise through Stanley Park, stop for a break/stretch if you want before...)
- Right up Denman, left on Robson.
- Make your way down Robson to the Cambie St bridge, and down Cambie till 41st or 49th, turn right. Then make a left at Oak
- Basically stay on Oak till it turns into Hwy99
- Enjoy another 'healthy' rip along the hwy until almost White Rock.
- Take the Cresent Beach/King George Hwy south exit
- Make the right onto Cresent Rd, follow that till 128th st, make a left.
- Stay on 128th and that eventually turns into Marine Dr.
- Cruise along Marine Dr which will lead you to the White Rock strip/beach. stop for a break, stretch the legs, enjoy the view.
- Stay on Marine, which will eventually lead you to 176th st.
- Left on 176th st, and cruise that back to Hwy 1 where you can head back home, OR now you can cruise over the Golden Ears bridge if you don't want to mess with Port Mann construction.

It's one hell of a cruise, I'll give you that, but totally worth it if you're bored, looking to unwind, need to think, or have a shit load of music you wanna rip, but can't blast it at home :D
