"April 29, 2006 was the planned opening day for the Whistler Bike Park, but with traces of snow still on the village and over a meter at mid mountain, the plans have been changed. The call has been made for [HTML_REMOVED]#8220;Machines.[HTML_REMOVED]#8221; The Whistler Bike Park crew are going to begin ploughing the snow aside to free up the beloved trails for our riding pleasure. They have moved the opening date forward to May 6, 2006 to give them enough time to buff, groom and of course plough. It is an exciting time of year as we are pumped to ride and put our winter blues behind us. Well we are almost there and Whistler Bike Park will soon be ready." -Raceface
