Missing Whis’ – BC Dreaming

Oh you’ve not been? We look back on last year…

Whistler, the mistress to so many, calling out as only she can with her perfect curves and seductive lumps, rough gullies and jazzy watering holes.

Dirt Merchant… not as much hype as A-Line but what a line! Riding it at the end of the day is sublime, but the low sun makes everything blind.

Every jump is just crying to be tabled, tweaked or scrubbed. Whether you are making your first moves into the sky down Crank it Up, or dropping in with a swiftly beating heart to the legendary Crabapple Hits, there’s something for everyone.

Bored of big bikes? (Whatever!) There is plenty of stunt lump riding to be done in and around town.

The golden ticket – for 10 days the village goes mental, and the world’s best rub shoulders and grab chairs with the dribblers and sprayers as Crankworx rolls into town.

The Ride.io Media Support B-Team enjoy a well earned rest. The worst thing about BC is the beer – Those are “normal” sized…

There is so much more to BC than this small village, once the Crankworx lunacy had moved on we headed to Sun Peaks.

It wouldn’t be Whistler without a daily trip to Misty Mountain to grab pizza, pop and maybe a day-old.
