This room simulates what a “Roll Over” is. The room is loaded with natural gas for about 10 – 20 seconds then lit with a flare. Sometimes it takes a while to find the gas because there isn’t very much oxygen left in the room…..the visual effects are pretty cool !!!

Today the Volunteers from Kelowna Fire Dept came out to play with me & Doug!

We made them work really hard:

Here’s is one of the nice big & hot fires I made. The
team had to make entry from upstairs, find & make their way
down the stairs, then find this fire and put it out: Got really
hot in here while I was waiting….

L8R!

Another e-acquaintance has come to town for a visit. Craig is a long time mod on MTBR.com, and a regular on NSMB. He and his wife Ina ride all over the world, so we’re feeling somewhat honoured that they are gracing us with their presence.
Mr Moose didn’t really share the sentiment. I guess we should keep our heads down today.

I haven’t seen McDougall yet, and Craig was interested in seeing some local XC stuff, so up we went again. I really like climbing….

We had a little snow on the trail today.


One thing about this ride is that it’s tough to get a picture that shows how cool this particular piece of singletrack really is. This shot for instance, no justice at all…

And now it’s time for fun with HDR (that’s High Dynamic Range) photoimagery.


Good times. And now back to the trail.


It was a little chilly up there today. Here I am enjoying the loss of bloodflow to my fingers.

Another couple of enhanced shots with a cool tree for some added flava.


Finally, the last climb.

As usual, there’s a huge part of the descent missing. Here’s one of the many lookouts on the way down. We’re just having too much fun railing corners to take pics.

Doh!!! I railed one a little too hard and buy the farm. Someone won’t be waxing her legs for a while….

PS. – Happy 69th Birthday, Dad
