is there stuff around the River Rock? By stuff I mean good shopping of course :D LOL I have never been to Vancouver so even though it is for work pretty excited.

If you have stayed there is the gym decent like dumbells up to at least 60lbs with an adjustable bench? I am there next month for work first day is slammed but the next two day I have a bit more free time.

Thanks

They just put a sky train station infront of this place, its 2 stops away from Richmond center and Landsdown mall, and 10 mins from Downtown Vancouver. Tons of access to shopping.

Hey, i just stayed there for my bday and i used the gym. Its got treadmill, elliptical, bike and stairclimber. Dbells only up to about 30lb if i remember right. They have universal machines. I dont even remember seeing a bench or anything, pretty basic. And for shopping..etc use the skytrain to get downtown, itll take 15 mins

They just opened a new Golds gym in Richmond in the Grizzleys old training center. Its a little ways away from where you're staying but worth the drive if you want a really good workout.

they have a drive fitness on no.3 road and alderbridge way and right around the corner right near the richmond oval they have fitness world, i havent seen it but i heard they have a steve nash gym somewhere in richmond as well, as far as shopping goes i would probably go to pacific centre in downtown or metrotown in burnaby
