It’s Illegal to Buy Gum in Singapore

Posted on by Smoke

Unless it’s in the pharmacy. I kid you not. How would I know that?

Dave and Nick are from Singapore.

I thought they might be tired after riding in Whistler all week on top of a ’round the world jet lag.

I thought wrong.

Here’s the boys on CBC.

…and here’s a local styling up the CBC zigzag log. Nice ridin, Rob.

Here’s Nick again crossing the swamp on Pangor.

Tired yet?

Nope, just needing a hotdog an a beer.

Then we blasted down the Severed Dick and retired to the backyard for steaks and more beer.

Then we had to hit the pub (which sucked) and some strange scenes in the alley (which were far to depraved to relate here).

Were they tired? Have to check back on the next update…..

Like you’re going to be the slighest bit interested in what I have to say here. Anyway, congrats to all the racers int he Test of Metal. While you were racing, we were up to something else.

Now, on to the pics.

These two are in sequence. Wee if you can spot the guy who has never seen snow before.

Here’s the crew. Darren, Mark, Greg, Tony, Mingo, Adam, Tim, and uhhh…..I kind of forget names too easily now. Anyway, it’s part of a locals crew that rip up the Shore together on a regular basis. I’ve ridden with Darren and Mark a bunch of times over the past several years, and Darren has been talking about loading up the chopper for quite some time. Looks like he picked a good time….

Sick scenery.

“Slick” scenery.

One of the bros dropping in on Awesome Rock with a fresh Demo 9.

Apres ride with wobbly pops and digi pics.

Well, that’s going to be the last bros ride for a while. David Martin from the UK gets here in a couple of days, and less than a week to go for the first major road trip of the summer with Freeride Adventures Japan.

Big Trees of BC

…Because some days are just for us. Most of the Bush Pilot clients don’t like to climb, or if they have the XC fitness they don’t have the technical bike skills. That makes days like yesterday all the more sweet.

I can’t tell you where this trail is. It’s near Vancouver is all I’m going to say. It’s a real bitch to get into. It was a 3 hour run, what with the semi-wet conditions we ran into. It’s truly epic. It’s one of the sweetest, flowiest lines I’ve ever seen on the coast.

And it’s covered in huge trees.

Here’s Dub being swallowed by the forest.

If you can’t see the image below, you may have to get the latest Flash Player or try reloading the page. You can scroll around by draggin the mouse. If you drag your cursor up or down from the Bush Pilot logo, it will also zoom in and out. P-Dub is in there somewhere.

…and here’s good old Barb riding the log.
