Pics?

I learned the hard way to towel off my bike before the dog. I'd rather have a slightly oily dog than a hairy bike.

Beautiful west coast, ocean inspired pottery.

Hello Everyone

As of Three o[HTML_REMOVED]#8217;clock today the Mashiter Creek Pipeline bridge has been completely rebuilt and is OPEN. I would like to thank Peter Mortensen of Rona and Katy, Ken, Dave and Cliff for all of your time effort to this vital community linkage.

Thanks again and enjoy.

we will be installed a barrier to prevent them from accessing the bridge in the next few days.

We are back up and running after a complete rebuild the Mashiter Creek Pipeline Bridge is OPEN Thanks to RONA Squamish, Bean Brackendale, and Peter, Ken, Katy, Dave and Cliff

Thanks Todd. I can't wait to see it in person and I applaud the lack of chain link and parallel boards (and of course that extruded stuff). Awesome.

I'll miss the old bridge. It had kind of an old-skool sketchiness feel.

Having said that, the new bridge almost looks like it's been there for years - like it belongs there. I'm sure the old bridge will be forgotten soon.

Great work boyz ([HTML_REMOVED] girlz?).

Great to see the bridge destruction has been fixed.. however it looks like more issues are afoot.

Roller Coaster has had some recent sanctioned work on the switchbacks which as filled a few braking bumps and generally smoothed things out. More recently, the last section has had some 'work' and all the tricky bits have been pulled out! No more line choice, no more roots, NO MORE FUN

Effectivly vandalism? Privateers? Sanctioned trail work - whatever it was it has pretty much ruined the end of the trail!
