Same here, just stopped going after moving out east 4 years ago. I guess I don't want to break my wrist......

Kev - you certainly have a lot riding on your wrists being in healthy shape..

Here's my friend's shattered collarbone on the day after Christmas (last season).. and the fixed version...

I've always wanted to go up to Whistler in the summer - but how do you haul a 50lb bike and your body armor and gear there? or Do you just use their rental rigs? I've heard that their park is hands down the best mountain EVER.. I usually ride a local place called "Lynn Woods" which is 20 min away from where I live, but otherwise, if I am looking for lift access: Plattekill, Diablo, Highland (

), Attitash.. I'll have to dig up some old action shots..

First off, beautiful bike. The V-10 is a dream to ride, but for most of where i do my riding, it is just too much for me. I have a big hit dh that is adjustable from about 4-7 inches. Although its still a hog (weighs about 45 lbs) i use it to cc from time to time and a few years back i would do some amateur DH races. Onto Whistler, I packed my bike up, basically disassembled it and packed it into a bike carrier. It was basically an over sized suitcase. Then payed about $50 each way to have it shipped on the plane i was on. If i had to do it again, i would just rent there. It was hell trying to pack it into our Ford Explorer we rented. And ended up tieing the 2 bike suitcases onto the roof. Next, the abuse my bike took was not worth it. I went through 3 wheels and multiple other components including blowing my rear shock on the last day (luckily). FYI I love Santa Cruz's. I used to own a Bullit and still own a chameleon.

How do you drive in the snow with high performance tires on 18" 162's? That is a cool setup.

The stock 'performance RFT' tires that came on my 162s have been replaced with Continental "Contiextremecontact" tires - which I consider a very aggressive all season tire tread pattern.

dammmn. where you think your going with those bbs and rack.
im loving the combo but please dont say you take it to the mountains.

F104 · 01-13-2009, 02:22 PM

I still snowboard

But my sixty eight Burton Canyon goes inside. And this is a kitchen door compared to others, but i love powder and am 6.4. On the roof it just causes noise and ruins fuel economy. I take the binders off and don't even need to fold one of the rear seats down - which woud results in more noise too. I slide it underneath the passengers seat and have removed the rear head rests, it fits ok.
On the Frenck tollways down to the Alps I cruise at 110 mph, don't want to have anything annoying on the roof..
