This is one of the few paved, longer, bike trails in North Vancouver (also making it more accessible than other trails). Longboards, rollerblades, roller skaters and walkers are all welcome. There's lots to see on the trail.
There are not too many trails this long, and this well-maintained, on the North Shore. Also, most of them are not this bike friendly (at least, if you do not fancy mountain biking). This is a great opportunity to get out for a day, and travel on a more "beginner" trail.
