Well if more ppl from the island want to go. I have a seasons pass again this year. I go up every weekend. I drive up friday night, camp it up logging road style then leave sunday evening. Im down to carpool
How much $$s does the weekend usually run ya?
right now its not that bad with coast saver fares on the ferry. 42 bucks each way for the boat. like 65 in gas.
Hmm, i'll be down once garbo's open and i got more $$'s in the bank
Logging road style? Lol. I recall a long time ago my buddy and I drove up from Oregon after work. Made it to the seas to sky about 2am and back then it was the dark two lane death road.
Anyways, I could not drive any farther and we pulled off an decide to sleep next to the car on a logging road figuring... Hell this is fine, we will get a nice quite nights sleep. Well about 5am we were awaken by log trucks absolutely barreling down hill and flying about 5 feet from us with their air brakes on. BbbbRaaaaaappppp. Scared the shit out of us but I'm sure the truckers were having fun. Our conclusion...guess Canada has rednecks as well.
Super duper stoked stoked for this weekend. Actually had a dream about the new crab apple hits.
Damn it was wet out there today, trails were still in great shape and not to slippery. Have to head back to the island again for another week of work on Thursday but hopefully by the next Thursday we will start having so e more sun. If there is anyone who needs a lift back to the island Thursday send me a pm.
How often do you head up to whistler?
This year when ever I can. I am back next thursday for 6 days, then July 3rd for 4 days and then July 25 for 14 days.

sick vid, that extended lip after the rock drop is soo much fun
That whole section was not too hot the day it was built. Few people broke collar bones on the extender. And the second berm after that got trashed. It's smooth as butta now I see.
For anyone here that rides continental tires when I am here in mid July should I run 2 der barons, 2 der kaisers or der baron front and der kaiser rear?
i ride a kaiser on front great grip, then a maxxis minion on the back, good braking traction and still fast rolling, but if u only want continental id just do kaisers front and back but if it gets real wet, run a baron on front.

Have you had any experience with these tires? I have always just ran der baron front and back, but i am finding out it's not too good in the dust by how many times I slip out. Do you think one new set will last me a week?
a new set will forsure last a week, ive been riding the same kaiser for over 2 seasons and its still great. kaisers are defianitly better cornering and dry/dusty conditions, as barons are mud tyres. i dfianitly prefure kaisers, for all condition, except thick mud. if its just a bit of rain the kaiser's will still work fine. message me when u r up here, we should go for a rip!
