They got rid of the GLC drop?  That's too bad.  I remember in 2004 being proud of going in with lots of heat, prejumping on a little pre-lip that was there, and making it feel smooth enough.  I don't think I've been back since 2010.

HI Cam, enjoyed the read. I remember a similar article you wrote probably a number of years ago now. In it, you admitted that NSMB didn't always send off your riders properly either, and you used Michelle Dumaresq as an example. Maybe worthwhile to mention it again?

I never met her personally but I did communicate with her about ordering this custom Kris Holm-esque leg armour, delivered to Victoria via Greyhound I remember.  You'll see a stem pad there too.  This would have been in 2004.  

Didn't know she did the North Van night market.

RIP Ingrid.

Bump, how are you doing Ross?

one other thing, can you ad some subscribe options to the user profile so we don't have to subscribe to each thread individually? or is there some control panel option somewhere that i'm not seeing?

Agree, that would be nice.  I liked how I was always subscribed to threads I replied to.

10 years since the last update?  Time goes.  I remember people complaining at the time that it looked like two strips of duct tape on each side.

Any chance we'll get our old forum post counts back?  And the date of joining?  I was 2002 I think, which seems such a long time ago!  We'd post about re-building dirt jumps around UVic after they got ploughed under, the Outdoor Show was the beginning of the season and we cared about it, and Wade was still competing in Crankworx slopestyle.

Hey!  2017 isn't my join date, joker!

I got two mediocre tickets during the first presale rush, and found two better ones once I could pick on the map.

They've changed their policy and now I can't resell the first two because it's credit card entry only and they're not listable on ticketmaster like they initially were.

I'll have to sell them to a friend and enter together which will be a pain.

I worked at a hotel/timeshare in Whistler and I caught one walking through the halls. Came though a side door propped open in the heat.

The tourists would feed them and thought they were cute, climbing the side of the building. The exterminators came and plugged up their nesting site.

So he can recover his movement, or is he wheelchair bound for life now?

I'm pretty excited, I've got two pairs of tickets. My first pair during the crazyness a minute or so after it opened, but in the corner near the back. Next pair once I could choose on the map is on the rail, upper bowl. Looking forward.

JT is a great album, but it's prob only 45 minutes long. So they're bound to play other songs too, so that's great. I bet the first song after the JT album portion is done is "The Fly" from Actung, which Bono described the sound "like four guys chopping down the Joshua Tree."

Probably not a super popular topic around here, but I'm excited for the U2 concert announced yesterday!

BC Place on May 12 in Vancouver, May 14 in Seattle so little chance of a second Vancouver show being added. Tickets next week.
