Dynomite – Day 5

Did yesterday really happen?  Yes, it did.  Now get up and do it again.

That’s right….ride, eat, sleep, repeat.  Now we’re off to Gillard for some more.

As an added bonus, we checked out French Johnny’s latest work.  The boys have been out in force resurrecting old trails that have been out of action since before the big fire of 2003.

There’s also all the usual fave’s, like this one on Rub-Her-Down.

Oh, and the Boss Hog wall ride.

Lush…

We even managed a Kerplop, and the sun made an appearance or two.

I think the crew may be getting their fill.  We only managed a few runs today, and then we were beat.

Just as well, as we had a premiere of the latest Radical Films release, Revolve, to go check out.

There were a few hundred in attendance, and we made the keeners do pushups for prizes.

Not a bad turnout, considering it was the first day of Silverstar being open.

Later we went out for beers with Spuds.

He’s with stupid….

Return of the Old Neighbours

Must be Labour Day, as Simon has returned with the crew, lots of beer, and a few chickens….

They said they wanted to try out something a bit more radical, so we went over to Addiction for a session.  As a bonus, Ryan McKenna came out to show us how the locals send it.

Oh, and Addiction engineer Andrew was out as well…

And now, several Wally’s…..

..and a couple of step downs.

Check out this rack.

After a few runs on Postill, we made an abrupt change of locale and went over to Gillard.

Another crap day finishing in the God light.

Not sure what happend next, but the phone rang and suddenly everyone had to drive back to Vancouver.  Sorta wierd, but it was a good day of riding.  Until the end of NEXT summer….

Four And A Half Men – Day 4

No pics fromt he boys ride yesterday. They were at Silver Star and I was inthe hospital with the family, so you’ll just have to imagine some pics of their day.

Today we went to Gillard to shred the Kelowna gnarcore.

Tyler put on a clinic for the boys, to make sure that they got the idea.

Ooops, forgot to phone the girlfriend. The boy has skills on the bike, and apparently in other areas too. Look at that spadework….

Still, better get home or this will be your ONLY ride…

The young gun was paying attention earlier.

Bum shot of Matt on a BIG rock line.

Ooops. Trip gets the bums rush. He got some cool tread marks on his arm on this one.

No harm, no foul. Everyone felt good enough to try this wall.

Of course, Trip makes everyone look lame by comparison. You can really see how big this bike is on him here.

Still, inspiration for the rest of the crew.

I think they might actually be tired now. A short day to finish off tomorrow and we’re done.
