The Greybeards/Wellburn Enduro - Lake Cowichan - June 8th This is an easy enduro for trials bikes and enduro bikes too. Small DS bikes would have fun as well (like WR250 or DRZ400 in the right hands). I have even see Honda 650s rie this event in the hands of experts. There is a lot of tight...

For all you tree huggers out there (or budding old growth loggers), I have added "Big Lonely Doug" in the Gordon River Valley (near Port Renfrew) to the "Big Trees of Vancouver Island" adventure ride. Its the second biggest Douglas fir in Canada...

Hey guys, the next weekend forecast for May 3/4 looks *fantastic*. The wifey gave me the go ahead for a single overnighter, so I am going to truck it up to Port Alberni Sat morning and head north up through the back roads to Comox Lake area, find some place to camp and loop back down. Going to...

Hey all, I saw that West Harrison was open, and I have an open weekend in May coming up and I would like to do a loop ride. West Harrison to Pemberton Up the Hurley to Gold Bridge Up past mud lakes and turn south on Yalakom Bridge river road down to wherever East Harrison back to the start...

I am thinking of taking the 690 up to Shawnigan and head out towards Renfrew for an easy ride (big competition Sunday, so I gotta conserve my energy). Anyone interested? Easy logging roads. Maybe some exploration on tougher stuff if everyone feels like it.

Hey guys, whats the exact time and place for the spring nubie ride? A couple of us are coming over from the island to enjoy the wilds of Chilliwack... LordEndo posted a GPS location: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ta...70db02c6e3d86d - I guess we meet at the campground there? What time...

It speaks for itself...

Will the A Loop on the Spring Nubie Ride be Rollchart, GPS or flagged? We got a coupla guys coming over from the island. thanks!

*groan* another tire thread. On my the 690 I run a MT43 on the rear, just because I had one. It seemed fine. Because its harder compound (and higher pressure for DS use), I did not see all the benefits of a trials tire on the technical stuff. I seemed to spin where I expected it to grip. I...

I would like to do a BC interior loop this summer. The TCAT already has a nice mid BC track, but I want to come back "somewhat" along the #3. Does the Ashnola hook up with anything that I can get over Placer mountain then back onto the #3? Then maybe go north around Manning somewhere/somehow...

Any CPTA members here? I am coming over to visit my parents in a a few weeks, and would love to visit the CPTA trials area at Ioco. I am a newbie and just ride novice trials. It would probably be the March 1/2 weekend. I'd be happy to pay the favor in return and show off your group the VMC...

Anyone going? I'll be riding my explorer with the over-the-hill gang.

Looking for a ride tomorrow - it will be nice! I am open to lots of options: (a) Logging road exploration ride/easy double track - I will take the 690. Not insured yet, so cant do pavement. Sooke, Shawnigan... (b) "B" level single track - I will take the woods bike. Boyds, Tansky, Malahat...

I am trying to figure out a convenient alternative for trucking/camping the dirt bike(s) for races/competitions/rides when I need to sleep for the night. Trips would be up and down the island plus 4-5 trips to the mainland. Here are some of the alternatives I am thinking of: (1) use a tent...

There are a few of us who ride the various "B" level hare scramble routes on Tuesdays - like Tansky, Boyds, Mill bay, etc. The intention is to get into shape for the VIHSS hare scrambles. We'll also tackle "A" routes too and fumble through them - which requires us all to have video equipment...

Open Carry... I don't think I will ever be able to understand... http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=941590

Well since it was too damn cold last weekend, I am going to take the 690 out tomorrow and for a logging road ride out to Williams creek and search for a connector down to the bear creek cut blocks. I'll probably park at Burnt Bridge and ride from there. 9ish Good ride if you want something...

On Saturday - I am going to take the 690 and go exploring a route between the Kapoor road and Bear Creek areas, around Williams creek. Basically trying to connect up the old renfrew road from Shawnigan to renfew on the south side of the San Juan. ...only if no snow on the road... Send a PM...

Going to do some route exploring out at Port Renfew to connect the Bear Creek/Old Renfrew Road over the San Juan ridge to west end of JR Main. Expect rain, mud and lots of whippers (no kidding). 650 with knobs would be OK. Smaller the better though. We'll go where no one has been in a very...

OOPS - the title should say "TRAILS", not trials ... sheesh. Is there a group that builds DS trails (KLR friendly stuff) in SVI? I have some routes I would like to open up, but it would take a few guys to make it happen. It's outside the E&N landgrant. I know there are guys with VIHSS who...
