That Bottle cage looks surprisingly good. Might have to pick one up.

But the best bike in the world

still looks like a session.

Serious question. if it doesn't open on time, are we allowed to climb up and poach?

definitely. I'm betting mid June if the current situation in BC continues (pretty good, especially compared to the US and Italy).

Really? Devil's Club, the blue trail?! That blows my mind. I love that trail. In fact, I was transferring from the new wood to the old wood earlier this year and was happy with my ability to do so. The point is, that is such a simple trail and one I would never consider to be dangerous. To have an injury there is one thing, but to lose a life? Fuk me..... 

This fits into what I've been feeling the last two years. What we do is dangerous. But I love biking and it truly is a huge part of who I am. The anxiety I felt last season was tremendous and ruined more than a few good rides. But to see the carnage this season from these tragic deaths, to the mega injuries suffered by the pros, it weighs heavy on my mind. 

43 days park Whistler. 2 days Silver Star. 1 day Sun Peaks. Plus many more km's of dirt.

I had 2 crashes. 1 concussion. 4 wasp stings. Bruised ribs, and a shoulder injury that still hurts.

That said, in the end, I care less about me and more about the safety of my loved ones who I introduced to biking.

They took out the old wood last year in September if I'm not mistaken.

On PB this morning there was a story about a 35 year old from Burnaby who died on a-line on Friday. I remember seeing the chopper overhead that day. 

The last death I heard about was the fellow who went otb on crabapple, but that was years ago. Is 2019 a tough year for our sport, or are we just hearing about these accidents more now?

RIP to the rider. Needless to say, everytime something like this happens, it shakes me to the core.

I think someone died on Devils Club on the tall bridge, going too fast last year.

So how many days did people get in the park this year?

An even 50.

I saw what I think is the new YT Capra CF Pro in the park today. White and burgundy colour scheme, kind of like this https://www.bikes.com/en/bikes/instinct/2020?tid=72 but without the orange decals. Full Rockshox build.

Did it look like it could have a water bottle cage?

No. Same frame, different spec + colours. Too bad, though.

Park was good. Buddy went OTB on the last Little Rock kicker on lower Angry Pirate, where it meets Crabs. Park was muddy and really slow, more so than normal mud. Garbo was really cold, and Fitz was nice with my flannel shirt. I hope the weather holds good, doesn't freeze, and that lines aren't too bad tomorrow.

heading up right now. Garbo looks frozen, and so does Fitz from instagram. Looking forward to the last weekend on my Norco, after 3 seasons of park, westside, and shore.
