Sacred Rides in the media

Share
A couple of big events on the horizon: on Sep. 21, I'm hosting a bunch of media folk on a sneak preview of our new 'Deluxe BC' trip, set to premiere in 2008. This trip will start in Fernie and end in Vancouver; in between will be 12 days of the best mountain biking holiday on the planet: deluxe backcountry lodges, floatplane trips, houseboats, sweatlodges, and some of the best rides anywhere in the world, including a few secret, brand-new rides that are sure to become classics.

By the time we're done a few million people (via TV, magazines and newspapers) are going to find out what we already now: BC is the best place in the world to mountain bike.

Along for the ride are world-renowned adventure photographer Patrice Halley, writers Ian MacNeiil and Andrew Finlay, Ride Guide's Corey Horton, and two of my guides, Eddy Plant and Johanna Weintrager. Some of the people who have helped out with this trip are: tourism BC, Kootenay Rockies Tourism, Lizard Creek Lodge, Baldface Lodge, Retallack Alpine Adventures, Kamloops Bike Camp, Quaoot Lodge, Tyax Air and Tyax Lodge.

Should be incredible. Look for frequent posts from the trip!

Also, on Oct. 22, I'm going to be hosting world-famous freeride rock stars Wade Simmons and Richie Schley on a 10-day adventure in Peru for Ride Guide TV. In addition to some big rides in the Andes, we're also going to take in a few days of surfing on the Pacific Coast.

Life is good. Hope to ride with you all someday.
