Vegas Interbike

The dust has settled from last week's successful trip to Interbike in Vegas. Hands where shaked, deals made and beers downed - all in all a great trip! Read about the Trek Remedy 9 on pinkbike.com.

Misty Mountain Hop!

We just wrapped up our inaugural BC Kootenay's Misty Mountain Hop all-mountain adventure today. BIG thanks for guides Joe and Pat for their hard work leading a group of Californians, a Vancouverite, an Edmontonian and Seattleite. What a trip! Highlights... Idaho Peak in New Denver, Rossland's 7 Summits, Meadow Creek and of course Nelson's epic web of singletrack. The Kootenays rock and there's no doubt that we'll be back soon. 'Til then...happy riding.

"I love riding my mountain bike!" Sarge, stoked.

Chilcotin week-end

It's been great to ride some classics here in BC after spending so much time on the road discovering and exploring the world. You really appreciate the backyard I tell you. One such nugget is our Chilcotin Range, about 3 1/2 hours north of Whistler up and over an old dusty logging road. It's a bitch to get to but so very worth it. The forecast looked great so we packed up a big crew-cab pick-up with Big Mountain guide Ryan Sullivan, his wife Cathrine and Jory and flew up to remote Lorna Lake where we camped a night. It was so nice, the moon was nearly full as we sat around the fire. The next day we climbed up and over Lorna Pass, along Tyaughton Creek, then up to Spruce Lake, along the High Line and then all the way down Gun Creek. What a ripper of a day!!! 10 1/2 hours later...and very weary we rolled in and set up camp. We're going to re-launch our Chilcotin trip in 2009...stay tuned.

Oh, and in Blake's words "Our Switzerland trip was amazing. Without a doubt the best riding I have ever done."

Alpenrock DH photos and vert

If you'd like to view some photos taken from some clients one of our Alpenrock DH trips this summer check 'em out here.

The final total for vert descended on both of our Swiss DH trip was:

Alpenrock I: 85,000 feet
Alpenrock II: 115,000 feet

These aren't laps in a bike park either...think one of two descents down fresh trails that have barely seen bikes...
