4:20!

Hard to believe it’s the end of April isn’t it?  We had to make some nice S tracks in the snow to celebrate.

It was a long push up Desous today. At least the snow was shallower as we went up, but it’s a far cry from last year when we rode up on TOP of the snow.

Check out the IMBA approved construction.

Say hi to Jacinta (and the Fraser River 3200’ below).

Oh, and Barb too.

Well, it may have been a bit snowy, but the extra moisture made for the best conditions I’ve ever seen on Prime and Endless.  Here’s Cory scrubbing one out…

..and Dwayne, still smarting from that accidental dose of coffee I gave him on the last ride.

Too soon, the weekend is over and we had to go home.  At least we found the time to try some different backroads.  We like to have fun, just like this wild blond…

I’ll leave you with some religion.  I’ve been wanting to check out this old church for a few years now.  It’s between Ashcroft and Spences Bridge, on the east side of the Thompson River.  If you know where that is, then now you know that you can drive over there.

Ruined – Day 9

Y’all ain’t from around here, are ya?

Just another random hookup in the Canadian North. The XC guy just wanted to see someone hit this drop, so we obliged.

We’re on Desous today, and it was all good, as per usual.

For those of you keeping score at home, Poews actually hit this particular stunt.

He’s also looking remarkably tight on this corner on the backside of Desous.

Jimbo too.

Now you know why they call it “So Long”. Oh, say hi to Brian back there.

No trip to Williams Lake is complete without a bit of Puddle Jumpin’.

You know, if you’ve never been….

check out PuddleBike.com for some deets on how to get there.

You’ll flip (sorry, had to take the duck).

Or in the case of Poews…

…you’ll bust a nut.

It only swelled up and turned blue for a few days. Much better now.

Four Twenty Plus One

Last day in the Puddle, and it’s not warmingup. On the contrary, we’re breaking temperature records that date back to 1955. Minus 8? Are you kidding me? Anyway, that was overnight. It’s much warmer out now, but still freezing. We chose to get the first lap of Prime and Endless on Desous today.

This is the new line off the back side that Shreddie cut last year. I wonder what it’s like when it’s dry? so far I’ve only seen it either soaking wet or frozen.

It really is steeper than it looks.

There, that’s more like it. He’s new to the sport, poor guy.

Shreddie, ass out.

It was anice way to spend the day, but it was just too cold. Check out the deck at Mark’s….
