Sounds like a great trip!  I imagine you've got your route from the 
border to Vancouver already planned out.  If not, I suggest Hwy 99A 
(bikes are not allowed on Hwy 99).  99A is well marked, if a little 
busy in the urban sections.  The Pattullo Bridge between Surrey and New 
Westminster is a little bit of an obstacle when heading north, as 
cyclists must use the west sidewalk when traveling either north or 
south.  The approach to the sidewalk is not well marked from the south 
side.  Heading north along Hwy 99A (King George Hwy), turn left at the 
last traffic light before the bridge, ride through the Park & Ride area, 
and make a right turn.  Soon you'll see a ramp leading up to the bridge 
sidewalk.

Alternatively you can just take your bike on board the SkyTrain and zip 
all of the rest of the way into Vancouver.  Scott Road Station is near 
the south end of the Pattullo Bridge, you'll ride right past it trying to 
get onto the bridge.
