DH Biking

Ya.. $200 for a season pass at COP seems a little steep to me as well, considering that is the going rate for a season pass at the mountains. The $25 / 4 hours seems decent though.

If you guys ever do put together a Canreef group ride let me know. I'd be interested in possibly coming down to join you. I'm always up for meeting and riding with new people.

If you guys are ever in N.Van, look up North Shore Bikes, ask to talk to Matt (Owner).

The yhave some kick ass XC and downhill trails that only the locals know about. With all the toys istalled, until the city finds them ant dismantles them.

Robb my invitation from last year still stands!! Come on down anytime bro. (Should I say "mang" or "bi" or does that only apply to tank threads? I'm never sure of the etiquette..)

BWA, yeah, that whole "North Shore" is pretty much the birthplace of the second wave of the sport. Some serious trails peppered all over the place around there. Heck even inland as far as Abbotsford/Chilliwack.. I remember visiting SuperFudge a few years ago to check out his wicked tank of the day and seeing kids come down the mountains and basically end up in their own backyards. Hard not to be a little jealous of them guys on the coast! (Just don't let them know, it all goes to their heads and stuff when they hear non-coastal types speaking this way. <Cough cough> Sorry what I meant to say was "Vancouver is yucky, too much traffic, too much smog, too many people and too much crime!" )

That's what the mountains are for.

If anyone's willing to venture to the coast for a "peddle"...I'm game. There is something for everybody here.

I'm out that way with a bike at least once a year. Although this year it's looking questionable, but should that change I'll drop you a line! I love it out there. Er, sorry what I meant was.. Vancouver is yucky. I guess I'm not fooling anyone am I.

That reminds me, a buddy I used to work with and myself used to trek out to Squamish every year to do the Test of Mettle. Great riding up there for all skill levels and various terrain for just about everybody. They also have a nice hostel there that's pretty inexpensive. Would love to head up that way again one day soon.

Another great trek would be Moab! That would be cool, have never been to Moab before but am itching to. In the meantime I'm stuck with Fish Creek and riding with Tony. Just jokes bi! (or mang, or brutha, or whatever)... anyway, I wish this rain would stop so we can get out and do some riding already. Mind you I have full gortex gear from head to toe so riding in the rain doesn't really bother me all that much.

My ride just before it's maiden voyage at Sun Peaks near Kamloops a couple years ago. This thing rails like nothing else I've ridden. Still a little heavy, but it will take a pounding.

It's a Brodie Nemesis frame with an upgraded Swinger rear shock. All the other parts were pulled off a Brodie Holeshot B Team. Next project is to replace the front fork.

5 years ago or so i worked in jasper all sumer, brought my 100$ walmart special hardball with me and rode it till it was dead. 3 years ago now i was working lots with no bills and got a good bike. It has not seen a mountain yet just little hills around town

hopefully ill change that this year.
