Re: Victoria 2 Cowichan Aug 28, 2011

Wow, wow, wow. What a great day. Not to be missed next year. A part of me (a small part) thinks that we should ride this route more than once a year. Huge thanks to all involved for organizing a great day. Motorbikes with water and wheels blocking traffic, good food (thanks for the burger Jer) and g...

Re: Maximum Vertical Pain Adventure!

Went in search of maximum vertical pain and ended up on a truly beautiful ride. Great route, perfect weather and great company but.... the stats show that we are still a little shy of our full allotment of pain. dist - 134.6km rolling time - 4:48:57 max - 76.1km min - v.slow (ie standing and grindin...

From there we would like to take in a few of the peninsula's classic slopes; Dunsmuir Lodge Dean Park Thompson Place Willis P...

Cycling crash tribute

Thanks for that … I think. Wish I hadn't seen some of those. I do like the commentators comment about the photographer who took out Migs. "Take a good look at this man and if you know him, next time you see him say, 'You are a stupid, stupid idiot and I don't want to be your friend ever again.'...

Hurricane Ridge July 1

Been meaning to do this one for as long as I can remember (several hours at least). First ferry to Port A. is at 06:30 but I've heard it can be pretty busy so we'd better show early.
