Phat Wednesday goes off in Whistler

Wednesday, June 20, 2007

What can I say, WOW….175 plus riders for this summers first Phat Wednesday race. We got the race off at about 6:15pm and our last rider started 1hour 54 minutes later. Big hand for Seb Fremont and his crew, Bernie, Cory,Siobhan and all the rest. I guess racing in this town is very much alive and growing. Today’s race was down B-line and was quite fast with sub 4 minute times. If your interested in participating. just check for the next race on Whistler Blackcomb website

Fanatyk Co's loonie race goes off

Friday, June 15, 2007

Another awesome loonie race went off last night in Whistler. Over 200 riders from the area took place in Fanatyk Co's poker race run. The race consisted of a village start in front of Fanatyk Co rentals with everyone having to walk their bikes down village stroll. Going around the corner in front of Citta's most terrace watchers got a good laugh. The race proceeded up Blackcomb mountain to the excaliber level to turn around and head down Cory's trail "Hey Bud". Lots of action could be seen as early season conditions made the trail quite treacherous but fun. Prizing was furnished by Norco and food was supplied by Behind the Grind. The delicious after-race beer was supplied by Russell and our friend Feds.

Fanatyk Co Staff ride on "River runs Through it"

Saturday, June 02, 2007

After a long work day, the boys headed out to one of our favourite trails, River Runs through it. It has been completely cleaned up and ready to rip. With water melting in the high alpine the river is at its highest for the season. Some new creeks develop every year so you never know what changes mother nature will give you. Apart from the mosquito's coming out to devour you, it was a fairly smooth ride. Most of the funky bridges and ladders are in perfect shape.Stay tuned for more updates on local trails.
