At least he came out to the trail day! I'm glad everyone showed up that did that day.
Yes, that's Pangor.
PS. Management is responsible for motivation of employees. Give them the right jobs to do, and the tools and training to do the the work.

Is that a pic of the two surrey boys that built Crippler? I have yet to meet them and thank them for the pimpcoaster and the wall.

The attitude of the workers is a reflection of the attitude of the management.

Well then I would say they deserve to have a sit down break, as long as "management" is ok with that.

why is that trail so wide? it looks like a skidder.

although I am not familar with the history of that trail, I would say its wide there because its a spot that has collected water. After a couple years a few thousand riders have ridden around the wet spot, widening the trail.

That's why skinny's need to be built really high over rocky canyons that have a raging river, so you HAVE to ride it.

Drop the yappy wash mitt dog and stop clicking the red shoes together there Dorothy. This isn't uphill Nelson (which is covered in snow half the year and used by a relatively small rider base)

the mtn stn trails are freekin shredded..horrible conditions and poor quality wood work..sorry but its true, i was there in august.
Coined about 12yrs ago sitting in the dirt lot beside top of the Fault Line (now CBC) after being passed and harassed by numerous car dependent riders(?) on their way up to do 17 runs down the Rockbin. People entering the sport back then were unreal in their manner with the 'ride up' crowd...
Say, when are you gonna take me out feed me some hospital food on the bike anyways?
/end rant.

i don't think he has to worry ned, most of the car dependent riders are too lazy to hop on a ferry for a day's ridin

If I lived on the SSC there would be no way I'd be hopping on a ferry to ride either. They've got the goods over there.

its like the slowest stampede you 'd ever see..but we got something for nearly everybody and more being developed all the time..its a really rare little mtn we have here , as well as 40% or so of the riders also build and do regular maitenance ,also of course, the small population to abuse the trails..
