Hey Team, once again we are all wrapped up on another Great Season of Trialsin'.  Although you are going into Hibernation, take your 'puters with ya and lets keep this site alive. Tell us your thoughts, your projects, re-builds on your bikes etc...

  Riding in the Fall is a great time of year, cooler temps and all the green turns to brown. Up here in Mcmurray, it's a great time to break new trails, and find new lines in the bush without the mosquitoes and spider webs in the face.
  This past weekend, I was out riding, down one of my many trails, and I happened to look up off the trail just in time to see this wicked ridge line. Daylight was fadding quick, but i had just enough time to cope a feel. I took a stab at this wicked line I picked out, got up it, and carried through for a ways up.  But my next thougts were to turn around, come back down.
  Dang it!  this is gonna have to wait till next weekend, and hopefully the snow will stay upstairs for at least another month. (Doubtfull thou).
  I wanna get a few more rides in before I go into Tare Down Mode on the Sherco.  The Rear end swing arm and linkage and bearings always get full attention come winter, along with Wheel bearings...and whatever else I stumble upon...

    Good News, THE RACE IS ON!!!  If you haven't seen it yet, Dave has pulled it off, with some help from the Shuswap boys.
The Location has changed to Scotch Creek, in the Shuswaps, (I'm not sure of exact coordinates).  And it will be on the May Long wkend.  Check out Dai's Blog.
 
Dave says camping will be allowed, very nice location, it is a distance away from admenities, so pack accordingly, be prepared with food, water, tp, and beers...and fuel.  Be sure to bring a back pack, to carry through the comp with fuel and snacks and water.  (a big mistake i made at Rocky Mtn House, Baseline Comp)
 
Dave says the terrain is very challenging, it will make for a interesting day(s).  The sections will be made accordingly per class.
By the sounds of things, Dai has a lot of help to build this event, although he will be under a lot of pressure, it's hard not to be, if there is any way for any one else to help out, I urge you to offer. 
Unfortunately, I am not able to make it, I will be happily moving my family into our new house this wkend. 

CONGRATULATION DAI, AND BEST OF LUCK.  Travel safe everyone!!!!!!

THE TWO STROKE BURNING!!!!!..... Ahhh at last, first ride of the season up here in Ft Mac.... I made it out for about 2 hours in the afternoon, did that feel great.   I went to my playground on the north side of town, the terrain has changed, with the water errosion, its gotten a lot...better, deeper, rougher. Then just adjacent to, some other construction, they built a water run off, the bed is layed with rip rap (rock bed), and a good flow of water is rushing down.  This line, section turned out to be world class I'd say, totally wicked. I did post photos on my facebook...

I hope more of ya'z got out this wkend as well....
