Gillard is the absolute bollox for tech and gnar, and the trail network and amount of options, but I never found Dr No.....it's on my list for Springtime.

And where the fark is Little Bones BTW ?

Dr. No was the first trail built on Gillard (besides Goldfinger and MoneyPenny) and hasn't changed since the day it was finished. With that said, clearing the wild fall is cool, but altering the trial is not. I will assume responsibility for it.

Dr no is an antique. Little bones was good in the day, I broke my specialized clean in two on that trail. Apperantly aluminium hardtails back then didn't take kindly to long travel forks, and by long travel I mean 3 inches.

Visit to local Kelowna bike shop + purchase of Gillard Trail Map + riding = fun.

As above + extra portion of local rider as guide = fun x2
