Hard to believe it’s the end of April isn’t it? We had to make some nice S tracks in the snow to celebrate. It was a long push up Desous today. At least the snow was shallower as we went up, but it’s a far cry from last year when we rode up on TOP[...]

Well, we woke up to fresh snow and lousy forecast, so we had only one choice this morning, which was to head west. As usual, Mark had a little something extra up his sleeve for today, and that something extra involved one seriously long approach drive. I worked it out on Google Earth last night. [...]

Mark’s been doing some reno’s this winter. The little cabin now has a better view, and the rotten parts are being replaced. That little cabin is getting close to being 100 years old, and it’s going strong. OK now Chevy, finish your Guinness and we’ll go riding. The Knolly boys were in town for more[...]

Someone is getting pretty close to riding a bike….. Oh, and she does NOT want to wait until she grows into it. Chevy wants to ride now. Maybe by mid-summer. For now she’ll have to be happy playing with some cardboard. It’s the annual 4:20 trip to Williams Lake, and it’s looking good for tomorrow. [...]

Last day in the Puddle, and it’s not warmingup. On the contrary, we’re breaking temperature records that date back to 1955. Minus 8? Are you kidding me? Anyway, that was overnight. It’s much warmer out now, but still freezing. We chose to get the first lap of Prime and Endless on Desous today. This is[...]

A likely bunch. Looks like trouble to me….. It’s pretty damn cold out today. About -4C at the top of the trails, but it was fairly warm down by the river. The trails were still frozen, so you could go inhumanly fast on them today. Yeah, warm. Lyle, you look ready for the beach….in Inuvik.[...]

Fresh bike build today. I’m still waiting for my SX wheels, so I built this one with the DeeMax’s. They make a nice contrast to the BC Green, don’tcha think? We had a little Knolly convention today. That’s 7 of ‘em right there, and the 8th was under construction in the shop for later. Noel,[...]

Travel day today. I did a little riding, but nothing worth posting. It was snowing pretty hard in Pemby (it’ll be sunny soon….the Pemberton Pocket. Stupid locals, it snowed all day). Instead, I have this pic I took of Mr Coyote on the Duffy Lake road. He looks like he could use a little spring[...]

No, that’s not a trick. That really is my odometer turning over 420K. I parked the Great White last year just for this occasion. I had some business in Vancouver this week, so I started the weekend off with Dan, Seb, Wyld Willy, and the Pemby crew. Keep in mind, this was the warmest day[...]

Another sick, bluebird day. Here’s the view from camp. Mmmmmmmmmmm….Jolly Ranchers. With it being such a nice day, we decided to tear it up in Farwell some more. Besides, it was over 30C again, so why not pretend it’s summer? Our first run was on the Fingers. It’s a fast run, but it gives a[...]

Yeeehaaaa!!! Farwell Canyon and some jetboating onthe agenda today. First we hit a couple of classics in Farwell. This shot is a total fluke. I was playing around with the white balance in low light and forgot to reset for the bright sun. Sorta cool…. Steve hanging out… Dan gets vertical on one of the[...]

Another fairly cool morning, but it looks like the snow is gone. We met up with a full crew of maniacs at Red Shreds for a day of shuttles on the in town trails. A few stars were out, like Super T, James Doerfling, Glew, et al. For our warm up, we hit a steep[...]

Hmmm…..a little colder this morning. Oh well, I should be used to it. It’s still better to go riding than to sit around shivering inthe snow. Nothing like a cold call first thing inthe morning. Gustav, off the wall. The Chromag boys showed up mid morning. Find your shoes yet, JJ? The weather improved throughout[...]

Ahh yes. April 20th…the unofficial start of the season out here. As usual, I went to Williams Lake to kick start the festivities. It looks like someone else was having fun too. OK, that was from last year, but it was new to me and Dan (Skogland came along for the ride). We made it[...]

It’s been a busy time for riding. I just cracked off a new vid for you all to enjoy. Just a bunch of random hucks from the springtime and some Williams Lake road trip footie. As always, please RIGHT-CLICK AND SAVE to download the vid to your own machine. I’ll be out riding all week,[...]
