From what i can remember hornby island is quite small is it not? Either way that looks fun and i with i could get out to the island this summer and rip that singletrack.

Keeping it sketchy since 1989

Have any of you shredded on Denman? it's got like.. 1 cool trail that I know of, but I want to find summore when i go up to visit the grandparents there. Apart from working on my own trail. check for a large starting ramp in someones front yard. one day it will be a super trail. now its just a baby trail.

Man this kid is totally a stalker. I can't wait to tell Matt that I told a stalker how to contact him. Do you want his address and phone number?

just epic !

I was a little dissapointed actually just because all the stuff for sale was mostly for females, but I was able to pick up some "rocket power" which is like a tingiling balm for your peepee.

I was joking I'd probably never have sex with a hooker. I'm friends with a couple of the high up ones though…

Just returned from a weekend at Hornby. It's sweet!

Test tube to Chris [HTML_REMOVED] Brad's to No Horses has to be one of the single best linkages of trail ever built outside a bike park….sweeping curves gradually narrow to tighter vertical banked turns. Soooo rad.

Hornby even has a little stunt trail which, my ragged wheelie drop aside, provides some good times.

Not bad sunsets either.

Will the riding conditions be good at the end of May? I've got some time off between jobs and am thinking about heading there.

how do you get to the trails. i used to have a cabin up on quadra island, and i may head to see the old buds and go fishing for the week. and i may drop round for some of the action.

life is like the sickest trail you can ever think of. it keeps on going, over all the bumps and mud, through the beautiful breezy grass, past the stunning epic views and sailing in the air during the hangtime. and at the end we all roll on ok, ready for yet another trail. another day.
