mountain biking
 
well, with spring coming in about a week, I've been watching mountain biking vids throughout the winter to keep my mind off the snow covered mountain. what mountain biking vids have you watched? (post up video here please :D)

this is what i stumbled upon, quite nice

and everyone has that moment where they get inspired to mountain bike more than ever, this video inspired me to bike more

to top it all off, this video shows why I love to ride

VOD on pink bike everyday has been the best way to get over the urge to bike this winter, and soon the dirt jump park by burrad bridge will start being built

http://www.pinkbike.com/

on the left side of the page there is POD and VOD below it. todays vod is fucking sick, theres a new one every day that gets put up and just click previous VOD's to view all them from the past couple years

or did you mean the dirt jumps under the burrard bridge? they made it offical at the end of last summer to have them started to be built by spring

also anyone on here that goes to the dirt jumps at ubc?

i've been meaning to go, but i've never been, how is it like?

there is a big set where the jumps are kinda sketchly made by the anthapology building that have like 6 foot lips with 10 foot gaps then if u go on sw marine about 50 feet theres another trail in the forest with only like 4 foot high gap jumps which are very flowy and fun

it is actually a very good place to start dirt jumping with gaps, very easy if u watch someone do them a couple times
