Moist but good on Who's Your Daddy. Not sure why folks insist on riding up a downhill trail. Great challenge, but someone rippin' down is surely going to take out a climber someday.

 So cool to watch you ride these trails! I recently got back into riding mtbs-bought a 29er hardtail(I'm 40 and rode hardtails back in the 90s). Needless to say, my skills are being worked on! I see way more guys with DS AM or freeride bikes. Funny because when I left biking it was unusual to see Full suspension and I somehow thought it would be that way still, wrong! But back to you.
Dude, you friggin attack the trails! Taking all the lines with serious drops and flying over them! Even smaller , step like ones you huck rather than ride out, it fun to watch. The video really doesn't do these trails justice because there is stuff here that looks somewhat technical but in reality you are searching for a line that won't make to endo. What kind of bike do you ride? Hope to see you there someday, sure I will eventually. I'm riding the Motobecane Fly Ti 29er. Not quite the huck machine you have but still tons of fun and thats what its about.

 Thanks friend, those are kind words. Still learning and trying to catch up to my buddies. Funny, I got back into riding in 2010 after riding a no suspension GT Timberline for a couple of years in the 90s. I just bought a used 2013 Enduro Evo on Pinkbike from a guy in Calif.

Great bike, forgives a lot of my mistakes. I tried one of those 29ers and they are super climbers, not as great in the air. Hope I see you out there.

 Evo Enduro! Sweet bike. Funny because I have been checking out some DS bikes but with no plan on getting one and thought the ultimate bike for me would be the Camber Evo. I keep thinking that if I had rear suspension, I'd be able to crest some of the more tech uphill sections. It's tricky getting off the saddle and maintain traction. I just need more strength in the legs too. In good time. The reality is my 29er is probably best considering I need to ride out there too.

 Yup. Bike's way better than me. I have looked at the Camber too, good bike of choice. Probably when I get a bit older and it's tougher to get up the hills, I'll look to a 29er. Happy riding.

 It is brother Smile It's a beautiful place, thats for sure, I'll get in touch as soon as I arrive. I'll be in Ontario now, but my dream is to see B.C. and ride it. It's a life's dream, believe me Big Grin

 Excellent! No riding in Ontario yet, but Vancouver Island has riding all-year round. PM if you're coming up to BC and Vancouver Island.

 Let me know when you're coming over. I would love to show off this trail. Your island seems to be full of trail treasures too!
