A dirty job....

For some reason I have to get my sister a gift because I'm on holiday? I never ask for anything other than her having a good time, No Doubt (Mmm, Gwen) it'll be something that'll just sit in her room unwanted. Anyway whilst downtown carrying out said rubbish job i found the Donair Hut, so how could i refuse eh? 1 Chicken Donair wrap coming up "hot sauce?" he asked "yeah", "One line or two", "Two", "Three?", "Yeah go on then". It was good, washed down with there home made lemonade 9/10! no picture tho (sorry Steve), it didn't last that long so directions will have to do!

We got out
for final ride on the shore b4 leaving did CBC, and Team Pangor. Took the Video camera so if i get chance later I'll post some footage...

Random Picture for todayNoticed this guy whilst coming come down an escalator he so looks like my Dad from the back?!

Holy Kebab Batman...

It took some doing but i finally managed to get a kebab in Vancouver, i appears in North Van at least that the places only open during the day. Its got to be said it was rather nice just not as large as the boys at 3 Chefs maybe that's why its hard to shed the weight eh?

Fixed up my bike again new bearings in the front wheel and lower shock bush replaced too! Feels OK again lets hope nothing else goes wrong!!

Critters

All of us rode the bike park today and it was a first from some of us Ali wins the prize for the most swearing to the terrain.
There was plenty of wildlife around today also, first thing we saw was a bear just down the trial from us and try as i might i could get my camera out fast enough before it went into the woods, it look our way as Doug said "BEAR!" it was obviously thinkin "Oh there's Doug" but was embarrassed to come over with all of us stood round...

Ali done some serious swearing down Smooth Smoothie.These fellas didn't move a fast as the bear, think it was because they were playing golf thoThe view from the car on the way home, before the traffic got really bad.

Kamloops Bike Ranch

Doug and I went to Kamloops and couldn't do the trial we had planned as it was on private land and the keep out (pronounced"Keep Oot") were all over the place ended up at the Bike Ranch. Was OK but it was red hot and it was really just a jump park and BMX, track. Doug was disappointed for sure so we headed back to Sun Peaks and filmed some footage for this years bike video, was funny...

We shot this at the Ranch with my Digital Camera so the res. is low...

Sun Peak's Bike Park

Got out riding on the bike park was good, we did quite a lot of the runs. Missed out some of it as a few kids had interrupted some bears and they had reared up at them. So we gave the bottom section of Steam Shovel a miss, but sections of that run were my favorite, stream gap jumps and table tops, felt like i was going larger than normal, at least my forks were holding up!!The View Up towards Biker Cross course.

Mission to Sun Peaks

Set off with Nicky, Paul and Sophie the dog for Sun Peak's was a five hour drive but think about it, its only like going to Scotland at home. Sun Peaks has more potential tho.Find a different type of burger along the way Triple-O's had the Cheddar Bacon Burger not bad at all 8/10! Like the "leave the pickle on the outside" for those freaks that don't like, weirdo's...Got to see the Blues Brothers in the gas station to think they were there to save the world or something or maybe just Hope?
Got to the place about 17:00hrs and was well impressed with the place we had got thanks to Nicky and Paul for sorting it. Was soon in the hot tub looking like a fat balding Ozzy, I seemed to have miss placed that photo tho
