TAP - Optional Lines

Wow people actually still ride Boogieman?

Yes, it's verrry hard to believe but not all riders are huge fans of flow trails of gold. There are still some who enjoy riding steep tech gnar ugly stuff on their 8" travel DH sleds.

Fuckin A… i cant help but think that the last part of this thread sounds more like a buncha whiners complaining about their skillz regressing and being all grumpy cuz there's no PUSSY line to accomodate their arthritic knees and nerves of rusty steel…. you know whats on Boogie - if ya cant hack it don't ride it fer cris sakes. Theres a sickish sense of entitlement going on here … people almost demanding that a trail be dumbed down (ya i said it - dumbed down) to accomodate their unwillingness or inability to ride a structure.
That log aint a death ride - if ya fall off you get all wet and end up smelling kinda like dogs ass… too bad. No one complains about Diggers Heron Pond on Ladies do they ?? No - and that log is way harder to ride. Everyone willfully gets off their bike and walks it if they dont feel like getting wet. Can you imagine someone bitching that there no pussy line around the log and teeter?? No way - that would be blasphemy….all trails should get the same level of respect - even boogie (which is an awesome LEGENDARY trail).

Word!

I agree 100% and I'm one of them. You just have to know where to ride. Are you implying that TAP has changed that?

I think you'll find it's the old bastards that like the gnarly stuff the most.

I'm sure he's just mocking Shirk. Who will no doubt respond by casually mentioning how he rides secret trails.

holy crap dude remove the chip

Must be winter…

In response to the Boogieman swamp log comments:

There are no plans for a ride around. It is a double black trail, and these type of features are to be expected.

If the log is slippery, I'd suggest everyone take a wire brush and a rag out on their next ride and scrub a few feet of the log clean. Worked wonders on my slippery stairs.

But you didn't see the look of concern on my poor lickle puppy wuppies face as I tried to get her to keep going along the log. :dog:

Before my knees gave way and my teeth fell out I used to ride the Ladies log. It's only a couple of feet from the 'ground' and the tricky section is maybe 5ft long? It's also piss easy to walk across, as in the last few years I've discovered. There's no comparison IMHO.

In all seriousness, I think cycling is an inclusive hobby, not a c0ck waving exercise. I mean come on, you're just riding a bicycle along a plank of wood….big fucking deal!

OK cool. Squamish isn't far away.

I'm signing out of this to do some bobsled laps brahs, but I just want to thank dkl for his positive and reasoned comments as I can't rep him.
