Babylone by bike...

[cervo]

the trail is ridable again... no more mud and swampy section... expect new features, log rides, and small drops... take a look at the new stunts before you fly down into it... few logs still on the way of trail on the top section so watch out (may disapear soon)... Enjoy...

[Cooper]

Oh sick, thats rad! Props to the builders. Guess I'll have to make the hike-a-bike up to kyber pass this week...

[Lady Gravity]

nice! it was really nasty two weeks ago :S

i wish there was a way to bypass the rapel section, that really freaked me out.

yeah, that bit is kinda sketch haha

[cervo]

that section is on my list for next year BC trail building season... got big plans for it... will see if WORCA wants it done... this year I only worked in the clear cut... I'll probably go for a ride on it tomorrow... if someone wants to join...

[Sharon]

Awesome work.

We may see you there! Heading out at about 12:00. Grey Turner 6pack

Twas a good day. By the way, I feel that the rappel section is rideable as it stands (no, I did not do it), but for safety purposes the bottom of the rock roll could have a smoother run-out built in to eliminate the chance of snagging your wheel on the nasty root. At the corner a berm could be built up or the straight line (not sure if that was a poach line) could be opened up a little. Additionally, a ride-around for the saner riders would be cool.

Sure that rap section is rideable but that is a hell of a hard place to evacuate someone with a spinal injury. Nice work on the reroute section in the clearcut cervo.

I expect you, out of all people to ride that section without fear ;)

[chris2]

it's not so much the roll that scares me (but it does) as the very short distance before the sharp corner to pull out of your nose wheelie! I've seen the rope line ridden..... but on a unicycle which was a definite advantage.

[the Master Plan Dan]

I was totally going to back flit that, but earlier in the day some noob on Crank it Up ruined my flow!

HA!

Great work on that trail, quite the trek to get there... but worth the effort.

Sorry if you had gotten up earlier! ;)

That being said, the park before and after Babylone was in amazing shape!

[Sharon]

great top off to the season!

only a couple of more days to hit it now I'd say.

Flip, Dan almost lost it on the ride down from the peak! So it might have been better for us to do the walk!

[Cooper]

Well I guess I'll have to do the push up from the gondy after school tomorrow....
