Not purely shore related, but I would love to hear what people have as their top 7 BC trails they have ever ridden.

Why 7? 5 seemed too few and 10 seemed a bit much…haha. I want to try to ride a bunch of them this summer….so fire away!

Most trails in Revy.

Merritt has some really fun trails too.

Harper mountain in Kamloops is up there.

I think it would be easier to nail down your top ten areas rather than trails. Way too many to list.

Some of us don't have the time or resources to hit up every area and ride every trail to find out what they like the best, hence the reason for this list. Don't get all PC and un-opinionated on me new NSMB…lol…share your favourites with the class!

Best loop/ride for me so far I think has to be Nimby, Let it go, Middle earth climb and finish with JTR. Killer loop that's hard to beat.

Its worth you while to go to Revy and spend a few days touring around the many trails they have. Very diverse network.

I may be biased, but a good way to spend a week would be to tour the best of Merritt, Kelowna, Penticton, Kamloops, Salmon Arm, and Revy.

Not really one trail, but one descent:

Potluck -[HTML_REMOVED] Thirsty Beaver -[HTML_REMOVED] Off-broadway in Cumberland

I really enjoyed Frisby Ridge as well.

Being cheap is OK. Being a clueless sanctimonious condescending douchebag is just Vlad's MO.
