Wow, Finn's time was fastest on the day.

This past fall I was stuck on a bike trip having forgotten my Impact Pros at home.  I ended up buying these Bontrager Flatline in a pinch, and I actually prefer them to the 5.10s.  Comfortable and they've held up well so far.  The grip against the OneUp aluminum pedals on my bike is very slightly less than a 5.10 sole, but definitely secure feeling.

wow that's bad. i have 2, 200mm 9.8's and while there were air leak issues very early on, both have been flawless since. i maintain them religiously and am very impressed with them.

What does your maintenance consist of, if you're doing something regularly?

I have had two air leaks on the same 150 mm post, and only a full rebuild has fixed the problem.  I'd rather not do that every year, as the new seal kits are ~$50, so if there's something I can do in the interim to prolong or eliminate leak issues, that'd be awesome.

I wonder where in the world that ridge is? At first I thought I recognized it. Looks very tropical. 

Wish they'd run it with a little better lighting, track itself gets swallowed up in darkness a bit.

Someone in the comments said Tahiti.

Check out Jay Inouye at Performancelab Rehab.  He was recommended to me by several co-workers, one of which dealt with extensive shoulder problems for about 15 years before seeing him.  He couldn't say enough good things about him.

My issue was piriformis syndrome, and with one session he was able to set me straight, and provide mobility and strength work to maintain the situation better on my own.

He was on the medical team for the Toronto Blue Jays at one time (in the Delgado days), and is very familiar with shoulder injuries as a result.

What about 7th on Fromme?  It's a bit of a slog to get up there, but once you've climbed it from a parking lot the laps of the trail itself are reasonably short?

How are you feeling?  Any soreness from the impact?

Ambulance chaser.

Haha, absolutely not.  More concern for a fellow member.

Sounds like I need to put Grannies on my bucketlist for when I come to Vancouver this summer (from Denmark). Is there somewhere I can find video/fotos from Grannies? Just to make sure I have the skills.

Here's a POV ride-through (beware the GoPro effect, the trail is steeper than it appears on video) :

There's a note on Trailforks for Floppy Bunny that someone observed it closed on Oct 1.  It's still got the sign up as of today, but no closure posted to Trailforks.  Any word on what's going on in there?

The Creekside gondola is closed for the season, unfortunately.  The last day of operation for the summer was September 16th.
