When I say get my hands on it, I mean trying it on before I buy it. Have a pretty big love hate relationship relationship with CRC. Got dinged pretty bad by customs last time I ordered, there is endless threads on this site as you know. If It doesn't fit and I have to send it back who covers the duty charges? It's just too much hassle ordering outside Canada. Plus I try to support my LBS's they have always been really good to me.

Anyways, good review, maybe one day someone will seriously try to carry this companies stuff, it looks great. It's just strange that they have you reviewing and promoting something that is hard to get, that's all.

Great review. Too bad it's for a company that it's next to impossible to find a shop that actually carries it here in BC. Would love one of their helmets with the removable chin bar but wanna try one on before I purchase, same with shorts. Tried contacting the company that reps them, they were really no help.  So have to say I don't know what the story is with this company. Advertising stuff you cant actually get your hands on.

Great comparison.

nice.

Nice review, how would you rate it against a lyrik and a pike?

They are the masters of throwing shit in the land fill that works just fine, just can't update it.

Same, the parks guys even fixed up the trail on the south entrance, off the power lines... Nice easy spin to Breamar from home is great. When I take my 8 year old trail dog I drive, he doesn't have the range he used to.

A wave tank like Kelly Slater's  surf ranch on the North Shore. That would win the election for sure.

Ya that was pure gold.

It would be a to prove a point. Also make sure they have a limo driver licence, insurance, pst, gst numbers etc.  Since they are charging fees on top of fuel I guess they are a business all of a sudden? I have never seen this in person, these people actually exist?

That has to be one of the most messed up letters. I would never hang out with people like that. The long road trips we all just split gas, take turns filling the tank.

Squamish/Whistler trips take turns or buy lunch and beers, it all evens out in the long run. If someone wanted to charge me for wear and tear on the car, I would demand an invoice then I would edit them out of my life pretty fast.

Bottle top repair and new bridge are complete I have been told. Just waiting for the official ribbon cutting ceremony.

Looking forward to it.

Inevitable both options? Talk about rolling over.

Done. Mentioned the bridge.

But mostly filled it out to encourage them to give the finger to E-bikes.

Glad they included a section on them, shows they're prepping.

Yes but these two choices are missing a third option:

Accept them as inevitable, treat them as mountain bikes, and embrace the additional opportunities they offer.

Accept them as inevitable but treat them as distinct user group

Cypress G8 pass. I got two this season but my wife can't ride this winter.

No Blackouts, also includes a free day at Revy.

Yes it's transferable, it's a voucher.

Yeah Sorry, I'm usually a lot more sofishticated.

Be a Mackerel if you do find him.

I don't normally make fish puns, but when I do it's just for the halibut.

Ran into (almost literally) a pack of soccer moms with purse dogs that were hiking up John Deere today. 

My response is to get stopped as best I can, say good morning, and try to resume my ride once they're clear. 

Is this right response? 

I have no issue sharing trails with hikers in 99% of cases, but in the case of fast, bermed, jumpy trails like John deer I feel that

A. It's not terribly safe. It's easy to hit 30km/hr+ on those trails. 

B. I do admit it gets under my skin, in this particular case. If you want to hike up GSM, salamander, sticks and stones, BP/bridal (obviously), heck even severed since there only a few fast parts. But John deer? Really? Come on. 

So what is the protocol and what is the actual designation? Is John deer actually multiuse bi-directional from a land management perspective and the downhill only designation is just a guideline via trailforks?

If it's actually a downhill only trail does it need for more signage to that effect?

Being nice and not condescending is for sure the best approach.  It's been ages since I have witnessed any static between bikes and foot traffic. Having a collision with a hiker/walker and then it going to court is bad for everyone, hope that doesn't happen.

Don't think you can actually build on it, or so I have been told.

Was closed at 7 last night. NSSR was doing training on the Baden.
