Golden Ears Bridge - A View from the Other Side

Here’s a comment on the video of the Golden Ears opening from a friend of mine (made inside a walled garden):

Wow, it’s like you and I were at a completely different event.

I came from the Maple Ridge side where there was no bike valet, no information and no crowd control. People got jammed together at an impasse and Ken Hardie had the nerve to yell at us all to move while there was nowhere else to go. Finally police started turning people away from the bridge and the congestion started clearing up, but people were pretty frustrated and angry on the MR side.

I think the event had potential but it was poorly planned and executed.

And my response:

I think it’s pretty safe to say in some ways we probably were at different events. I never made it further north than halfway up the bridge, and didn’t even have to wait that long for a shuttle when we left at the Surrey side around 3ish? So I probably missed all the drama…
