Mountain biking at Blue Mountain

Posted in Blog at 22:54 by vchan

So May two-four weekend Monday we head up to Blue Mountain for some cross-country/off-roading lessons in the morning and downhill lessons in the afternoon. Our instructor, Justin, was great. A patient guy who put up with us pretty well.

I think everyone had a great time. No serious injuries were had by anyone though everyone had some bruises and tumbles. Rick lost pressure on his front brake line so he and justin switched bikes and he survived. Somehow S flipped over his bike, landed in the forest and threw his bike up into a tree…go figure. Password was trailing behind a little and we regrouped, waiting for him to come out. We yelled for him a few times and heard him yell back. We didn’t make out exactly what he said but we assumed he was okay. When a whole bunch of ppl came out but pw didn’t, Justin and j had to go rescue him. Apparently he was yelling ‘help’, LOL.

I had a blast and want to get my own dh bike so I can head back and hit the trails! Pix are up: http://www.vchan.ca/menalto-gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=1520
