PACA Sunday Ride

This Sunday found us riding the Carmi XC trails as far as the CODE4 / Knuckle-Duster entrance, heading back down the high-speed, swooping Carmi XC trails, crossing the 'Carmi Landfill', er, I mean, the Carmi parking area and descending the Ellis Canyon trail. The lack of beginner-level riders showing up for today's ride meant that we were free to expand upon our originally intended route... and expand we did :-)

A great turnout and fun times! Pics:

Happy to be back in BC and on his new bike




Puttin' the mountain back in mountain biking

The New Kids are lovin' it!

Will it fit?




Carmi Landfill




I believe this note explains the area eloquently




Green n Beautiful - One of those "ya' had to have been there" moments...

The obligatory mosquito feeding session...




Beautiful canyon views all along the Ellis trail




Such a subtle exit to the ride :-)

On our cruise down Carmi, we found ourselves in the Duncan dirt jump park. I only snapped one photo, but it describes it accurately. Only 1 guy doing the jumping.
It felt kinda like taking the leash off a dog and letting him run around in circles in a park.

This was just the test jump, I missed the double front flip.
