IT'S SUMMATIME!


MOUNTAIN BIKING

Contributed by: Dave and Co.


I used to race Mountain Bikes about 15 years ago and have recently gotten back into it full tilt.  Not only is it a necessary part of me staying fit, but it's challenging, social and the scenery is amazing.  I try to go at least twice a week and have buddies that seemingly hit the trails nearly everyday.
The locations are endless and the industry is in a crazy growing spurt.  Because of it's proximity to work and home, I most ride the North Shore and Whistler when I have the time.

In need of some morning eye candy? - check out PINK BIKE and watch their daily mountain bike videos.  Super inspirational!


For all your clothing needs I suggest checking out sombrio.  Watson, the owner, is a west coast boy and super knowledgeable.  Great gear - it's all I wear!

Also check out the BC Bike Race - I did it last year and plan to do it again next year.  The BCBR is a seven day single track epic experience.  Not for the weary.  It's a tour of BC's west coast with 500 like-minded individuals.  I highly recommend it.  It does sell out so start thinking about it for 2013! Here I am on the track last year:



happy trails.
