Hey guys, in kelowna for a couple days visiting from Calgary, 6" travel trail bike, looking for something fun to ride, more technical then xc, something to kill 2-4 hours each day.

Any recommendations of areas and trails?

smith creek: feel the love or sons of anarchy and santa revenge combo ... the climb isnt bad you ride holy pally up.
knox mountain : shale trail or simpson to shale is a good one.. rood ride up its 3kms roughly for a 5min decent
crawford: vapour and connector are fun but the pedal up can take a bit

Connector is so damn good, it's an absolute must ride top to bottom.
