Oh CANADA- just for DAVE!!


My husband has come up with his favorite tradition ever which is "Boys trip to CANADA!" He has made this trip for the last three years now and it has been by far one of his favorite things each year. Each year has been a completely different trip with different terrain,weather and people. The only constant has been his buddy Kade who has gone with him every year. This year was Fro,Kade, and Ray- and Dave you were completely missed and better plan it in next year or else...........
I have officially decided there is nothing sexier than the view of the back of this truck. You can't see it but there are 6 bikes hanging off the back of this truck and it was such a beautiful sight!!! the guys are to of course, but the bikes were just a beauty in itself!!

after their 17 hour drive up to Whistler Canada the guys had a blast!!
The only downside to this vacation is the unexpected breakage of bikes. It is a good thing they all brought 2 bikes because they needed them. The first day Fro broke pretty much every possible major bike part he could break. His brake line (makes riding whistler a little tricky with no brakes!!! yikes!) he broke his derailer, a line to his derailer and a whole bunch of other expensive parts i can't remember!!
Kade experienced 4 flats which is completely crazy- just shows how hard they were riding.

This year they decided to try a different hotel for their stay and decided it wasn't as nice since Ray ended up sleeping in a pull out bed under the kitchen table- who does that- it isn't a camping trailer, it is a suite in a nice hotel- only in Canada I guess!!

One of the days the boys decided to break up the all day riding at the indoor foam pit and bike park. They were glad they have spent some time at the BMX park because it paid off. They had a great time, and the foam pit is one of their favorite spots!



Fro looking serious before his take off!


Kade workin' it- he is awesome!!

Now what whistler is all about- their mountain trails are crazy!! I tried to get thier helmet cam and handlebar cam footage, but it wouldn't download for some reason so sorry Dave!!- I will try later-- but they each had some crazy crashes and all came home with some pretty good battle wounds!


Until next year CANADA or unless Fro gets his way and we end up moving there any time soon!! Anyone else want to move to CANADA??? Same time same place next year!!
