Silver Star and Kicking Horse

My wife and I are going on a non-biking road trip which just so happens goes past both resorts…..so I'll be throwing my bike in the pack of the van. As I've only got one day at each place, can anyone recommend the FUN trails that I need to ride? I've got all the gnar I want around here so I'll be looking for swoopy fast stuff, maybe throw in some big mellow jumps etc. Will be riding a 4x type bike (Brodie Dissident with Pikes).

Cheers ears.

Silver Star is all fun: For the smaller bike, try laps of Shazam and Double Dog, or Rock Star for the bigger jumps. World Cup Downhill is also swoopy and fun with some wicked wall rides.

Start with Superstar for a warmup. Lots of fun berms and small jumps. Rockstar for bigger berms and jumps. Shazam for bigger berms. Double Dog for steeper trail and features. World Cup for going fast - big walls, jumps, speed.

Thanks guys. Sounds like a laugh. Hopefully I'll remember how to ride a bike more than 20kph after riding on the Shore all the time.

Won't take long. For a big laugh, make Superstar the first run of the day and the last. You'll be surprised how much faster you pin in the last run down vs the first.

I hit up both mountains last week and here's the lowdown…

For Kicking Horse the Rock Garden was pretty cool, then hit Showdown to Superberm. These are the "jump trails" although the jumps are small.

If you want something a bit gnarlier there is a couple hundred feet of steep rockface on Rock'n'Roll or take Time Travel to Pioneer. There are some cool stunts (Spiral Tap is my favourite)..the downside to KH was that everything in the "village" was shutdown at 5:30pm. Got down at the end of the day and had to drive back to Golden to use the washroom.

Have fun!

flow is fun too

Tankyou peeps. It's also been suggested today that I get in a shuttle or two on Mt Seven but I guess my wife might have other ideas!
