Cove’r Birthday

What do you get the mother of one of Canada’s up and coming DH prodigies for her birthday?

How about a little roadtrip to the BC interior? 

Holly comes from good stock, with both her parents being born and raised at ground zero for mountain biking in Canada – Deep Cove.

So “Cheers!"  Good to see ya, Jess.

Glad to see that you can rip. 

Your friends are OK, too.

Even the ole Ranch Dog is showing a bit of new school style.  Pretty rad.  It’s been a good year for taking old Cove’rs out for rips. 

In what is fast becoming a theme, mother nature threw down a bit of an afternoon show. 

Sure is pretty, and I guess the Forest Service boys are getting some overtime.

Rest-ish Day

Just what the doctor ordered, a nice mellow ride on the home turf.  Lisa has been pestering me for a couple of years for a ride in the Mice, and today I could finally oblige.

Nice and sunny today, and not at all rainy. 

Looks like it’s going to get hot over the next few days, too.   Lucky that today it’s just about perfect.

Lisa was just my speed.  We cruised up to the Ashtray on a roundabout route, and enjoyed a leisurely descent on White Rabbit and Narnia.

I’m pretty sure she had a good time.  Wouldn’t you?
