Which kind of says it all, doesn’t it? Maybe we were a bit tired after two absolutely spectacular days, but Seymour was tough today. Not that it’s supposed to be easy, I suppose. The boys were having a good time, hard going or no. Look at the big smile on Rolf. And I got to[...]

Ok, it’s time to get outta here. But not before we say “howdy, y’all!” to Wyld Willy. I had a quick visit and got all styled out with some fresh Spectrum Techwear goodies. As it was raining, we made the call to hit the Shore on the way home. My first ride there in about[...]

Each day better than the last, eh? You can’t NOT go to the Shore, so here we are…. After Pemby and Squampton, the Shore is EASY. As always, Dan is along for the ride, and making us all look like chumps. Well, not quite all of us. Richard (or is that Dave?) was charging lots[...]

Well, the Wade Tour might be over, but I’m still in North Van. Looks like I’ve got a “local” tour to do, just for old time sake. Ian was in town for some Nokia related conference, and we managed to hook up a couple of laps on Seymour. Yup, that’s Seymour alright. Not only did[...]

Seems like some DirtClowns have shown up on the shore. Well, they actually showed up in Whistler, and due to crap amounts of traffic I was late getting there so we had a bit of a late start. Good thing the sun doesn’t go down until 9PM these days…. Traditional first lap of Seymour to[...]

Had to go back to Vangroovy for the NSMBA Trail Day we were sponsoring, and I was smart enough to bring my bike in for a quick ride. I happened to run into the same group of guys in a few spots onthe way down, so I snapped a few shots. As luck would have[...]

As if I’d never come back…. Actually, I ended up riding Seymour again on April 1st, but I had to drive all the way from Summerland to do it. Just a tourist now. I couldn’t do my last loc’s ride with my usual riding buddy, as Wade is in Nepal right now. I’m never at[...]

On familiar ground again. Yup, back to Seymour. Gotta love the home turf. I think Stefan likes it too. The weather was still cool, but much drier than yesterday, to the point where we could ride skinny stuff. Rob J. got all twisty on us. Ralph likes the airtime. Wicked misty out, makes for classic[...]

What, not British? Holy cow, and American. Randy was here for a conference on medical imaging, like MRI’s and stuff like that. I’m sure no one reading this has ever had to deal with anything like that…. Luckily, we managed to have a great ride and avoid the emergency room. 3 big laps today. I[...]

Simon was in town briefly from Nottingham. He went for a rip with Courtenay up in Squampton, then came down here for a day on Seymour. I think that all this riding may be affecting my performance. Only one run today. CBC, of course. My camera has been acting up a little. What a surprise….[...]

What? Last day already? Awwwww…. I was just getting to know you guys. Well, at least you lucked out and got a CLASSIC shore day. I bit of mist, a bit of fog, and we’re on my home turf. Oooo! And I’ve got a new prototype from Cove Bikes to test too. We’re calling it[...]

Stefan came out last year for a trip, and he seemed pretty stoked for another tour this year. Funny thing was, due to a language barrier he thought that I was giving him the full tour this year, and I thought I was just picking him up at the airport. Good thing I’m such a[...]

Welcome to the CBC Ripper. I’ll be your waiter this evening…. A great day for racing. Some wet and slick weather to make it more interesting. This section near the end (the 2 rock faces) claimed more than a couple of victims. No serious injuries though, which suited me fine as I was the 1st[...]

Wow. Another stellar trip. Man, 2005 was definitely an epic…..what a great way to wind ‘er down. Harley basks in the spotlight. Our own personal spotlight was highlighting the woods today. Ralph getting the star treatment…. Peter gets off… This next shot is my current favourite of CBC. The Millenium Log in case you can’t[...]

Ahhh, finally I’ve gotten around to another round of updates. OK then, here we go. Up now is a German crew courtesy of Phil at DropInTours. Maybe not the most original of names, but anyway, here they are. That’s David with fingers in his ear. He won a contest to come out here. Hubertus, Jan[...]
