A day off the bike for me. I went out in the boat for a bit with my buddy Darcy, and his wife and kids.
What a swell day on the water.
Later, I ran into Killer and Durv and Hagen, and the beers came out……hey it’s BC day. It was fine all ’round.
Oh yeah, and DArcy got this cool old Chevy the other day. If you want it, the first $3500 takes it. Just drop me an email and I’ll put you in touch.
Today we ride bikes…..at least after we recover from all the booze in the hot tub last night.
Barb keeps the concept of original sin alive and well. How fitting considering the name of hte trail (keep reading, you’ll get it).
Snakes
Ladders
Mike gets into the skinny stuff on Snakes and Ladders.
“I’m walking on sunshine! Whoaa – ooooh!”
For the second run we went to some stuff I haven’t seen before, namely a trail called “Bush Invader.” Sort of ironic that I haven’t been there before….
Barb seemed to be the star today.
A nice composite shot of me on a wooden berm. Shots by Mike.
Same stunt, different angle, shot by Barb.
Here’s Barb, flying through space. It looks like you’re suspended in the air when you ride it, too.
Hot Chick…
…hmmmmmmmmm…..not so hot.
As they say, all good things must come to an end, and so it is with the Brits tor of 2005. Just as weel, as the white man carnage was getting a bit out of control.
Cracked ribs, bad sprains and possible fracture of the ankles, and a good laceration on the shin.
Jedi
Fractured toe.
Stouph
Fractured metacarpal (hand bon)
Stu
Various bleeding shins.
(everybody, but this is Barb)
Good times…good times. With just enough left in ’em for a lap of Seymour.
Panama
Funny how hard CBC can feel when you’re that beat down.
Mark
It’s still a great ride though, and tough to pass up when you only get here once a year.
Barb

The new Corkscrew trail is finally open, and although only a couple of the boys were feeling like riding that far today, the ones that did made the most of it. Synchro has really made a gorgeous addition to Seymour with this one, and the log gap is an instant classic.
Stouph
Two weeks just isn’t enough time for you guys, let alone 9 days. I can hardly wait ’till you come back. It had better be sooner than the next time I see Chaz on a pink bike…..
