Kootenay Down Time

It’s a non-working day of sorts.   We cracked off a staff descent in the morning, and helped the boys with their stunt (I’m callin’ it the Moose Knuckle, but I think Riley has his own story on it) a bit.

There must have been some distracton when this one got framed, as it needed a lot of refinements to make it rideable.  I guess it gets lonely at the lodge, so when the ladies show up, the trail building gets done with only half an eye.  Luckily, the ladies were away today so Riley could adjust the line.

Our pals from NRG also were around today.  They had to get a bit of work done, as they were hosting a product launch for their best dealers (NRG imports distributes various familiar lines in Canada, like Chromag, Maxxis, MRP, and others).  But work didn’t take long, and we got the up to Idaho Peak for a quick run before dinner.

Kootenay down time…get it?

Alright, two days of riding, feasting, and checking out the latest 2012 gear from some of my favourite companies.  Oh, and I get paid to do this?
