Can anyone suggest similar experiences to Myra Canyon that we can check out?

It’s not in BC and with Covid likely doesn’t work this summer but the Ride the Hithawatha on the Montana / Idaho Boarder is awesome. It goes through about 20 tunnels and tressels including a 1 mile long pitch black one. They also have a bus shuttle at the end so you essentially cost down hill the entire way. You can do as a full day trip from Sandpoint or Spokane
There are rails to trails under various states of construction from about Vernon all the way to Osoyoos. They aren’t as exciting as the Myra Canyon though. They run along the sides of the lakes through orchards with the occasional lake view. Well worth doing a few sections
