Good to hear! I'll be up there next weekend after I put my bike back together. I just hope everyone is patient with the park, sounds like they're almost starting from scratch and the new owners actually give a sh!t.
Last weekend for the season ends today. I had a chance to ride Washington for the first time since I moved to the island 3 years ago in mid August. The crew did an amazing job getting the old trails back into shape. Even on a busy day, you still had the trails to yourself. No one slowing you down or riding your butt trying to pass! Unfortunately, I received a nice little hand fracture during one of my "epic" jumps.
My understanding is, the new hill owners committed to keeping the trails open for 3 years to see how it goes. This year was a success in terms of numbers. They beat their yearly projection by mid August. Love to see people come out next year and support the hill. For the mainlanders, the price is right. $45 for a daily lift pass for some great riding. I am definitely getting a seasons pass next year. $250 is a steal of a deal!

I'm bummed that I didn't get a chance to ride it this year. I'm going to be all over that place like a fat... nevermind. Can't wait.
I had an awesome last weekend at the Mountain. My hat goes off to all the trail builders...they did a fantastic job this summer! Thank you to all the staff for always being so friendly and helpful. I rode 28 times and will defiantly be back next year! Now for the snow to fall so I can ski!!!
I got 16 days on seasons pass and hoping for more next summer
Rad!
The fist few weekends were ok but it got way better every week i went up had some good chats with a few of the trail crew guys who were ignoring what they were told to do and they went and rebuild a few rough patches into the sickest sections on the mountain
He wants permission to fix back in black but no luck so far so he will not ride that trail until he is allowed to fix it not so bad just a few lips he wants to tweak
Its that time of the year again and Black's Cycle has partnered with Knolly Bikes for another incredible demo day. We will be situated in Cumberland at the CRI. There will be burgers bikes and good times to be had! So swing by and take out some of the best bikes in BC!
