Well, it's been a while... Just wanted to give a huge thumbs up to those who do the work at Tamihi. We rode a bunch of the trails there on the weekend - fantastic. Sherwood Forest was great. Winona's is fantastic. Gnome Alley is the most amazing feat of hand-built trail I have ever seen...

Many of you donated your Loose Screw 2017 entry fee to help with the BC Wildfire efforts. Because of your charity, the Loose Screw donated over $5400 to the Kamloops Food Bank, Red Cross BC Wildfire Appeal, and the FourPaws animal food bank. This is a significant donation of which we should all...

So it seems that a bunch of people decided not to respect the closure of the Loose Screw or the ban on motorcycles on the trails as enacted by FLNRO BC. These closures were well thought out and well deserved to protect the tinder-dry forests and those that live within and and at the edge of...

It's the time, of the season... Grip Studs and a new Golden GT216AAHB Fatty :clap: I expect this combo to take me to promised lands...

Some information that might help you on ride day if you are going on the A route. Things will be a little different this year in that the route does not go into Falkland. In fact, it doesn't go anywhere remotely civilized. It is remotely remote in its remoteness! There is no gas. The water you...

Usually we post up some pictures of trail scouting but we're a little late this year. Here are a few photos, I promise some more in the coming weeks. Lots of new trail this year. We start early in the year. "It won't move!" I can't do a panorama like Wayne so just look at the next two and...

As you may have seen, we will have a C+ this year. The B route is not particularly big bike friendly so we present you the C+. The C+ will have plenty of seldom-used forest track for your riding pleasure. Much of it is a bit slippery now but it will be all dry by August. Scenic! Yes...
