Hey mods, why don't we sticky this shizzle!

last night….welcome to mid-summer….dust, loose rock, and the seemingly ever-present braking bumps are growing into the large wheel swallowing monsters that they tend to become…..good times to be had by all!

Fun night on the hill. Cool, no rain yet, but the cool air sure as a nice change.

Seems like a lot of closures on blue trails.

Speaking of braking bumps, crank it up is really getting abused. Ahhh the days when it was baby butt smooth…anyone have an in for when it will be done so I can avoid not-so-fantastic. :D

It wasn't too bad for the race tonight although it was pissing most of the day, Aline is in fine shape, still only a few corners are real bad, I can see the crew shutting it down after this week to prepare it for Crankworx, otherwise really wet but drying quickly, the ground is a big sponge now…..

A-Line and Dirty got some maintenance today, as did Crank it Up.

Expect more jump trail maintenance in the days to come.

Lots of craziness getting ready to go down in the slopestyle. Mr. Cowan is back in town and the course is taking shape. Biker X/slopestyle is under construction but may open for extended plays once the machines are done for the day.

My sources tell me of a triple step up leading to a massive drop. And a jumbotron. And the massive drop is over the jumbotron. Sicko

freakin squamish hicks that can't even get pogey right. go back to your meth pipe
