 Dude, that loam didn't stand a chance, I just witnessed a all out "loam" assault and I liked it! Looked like he just stole that bike and was running from the cops.

 Love the attention you guys bring to the AB MTB scene, often over looked by the glory that is BC, we have some great trails/riders here also
  • 6 0
 I'm stoked that you feel that way, because we are trying!
  • 2 1
 Yes, thanks for noticing. BC is awesome but things are equally great and unique here in Berta.
  • 1 0
 We don't have the $ support that BC does. Look at the population of revelstoke (including tourists) vs the pop of Calgary and then look at the trails. We most cetanly don't lack good terrain, hell we even got loam here in dry an.

 @Gasket-Jeff: I didn't know we had loam like that here! I'm not looking in the right places...
  • 1 0
 @ross005: I didn't believe it either the first time I rode that area. I had heard the trail name Loamzilla and didn't believe it till I rode it. Like I said we smuggle it in by the truckload from BC...

 Nicely done AY and Moolay!

 Most locals know Reg rip's the Rocky Mtns a new one weekly, but did anyone else notice the Remembrance Day Poppy on his pack? Riding, that good, near November 11th...This Fall has been epic. All class Reg, thumbs way up.

 i love perth. we toured there a few years ago, and i can't say better things about it- except the thrashings we took on the pitch. but stop dreaming dude, and just get on a plane and come out here. and if you get homesick, no worries- theres about a million aussies over here already.

 Cane Creek double Barrell, He's been on all sorts of shocks, he's a big fan of coils. But he tends to destroy them all.
