Photoshoot with Warwick

Friday, August 21st, 2009

So Miranda and I need some new photos…Warwick seems to have the mountain bike itch, and thus a perfect fit seemed to be in order. Off we went to Whistler, and up the Garbonzo Chair. Miranda managed to flat rather quickly into our photo session, so it almost ended up a private session with Warwick. Thank goodness he makes me look good!

Willson, you’ve been replaced.

When I cooked up my crazy idea for the holiday monday (Skiing, bike park, Airdome), Connor was an integral part of the craziness. I needed someone who would join me on all three of the adventures, or someone who could entertain themselves while I was off doing one they didn’t enjoy. Connor was totally into the idea of cramming in as much action as possible, but he wanted to hit the Dirt Jumps in Whistler instead of ski. The DJ’s in Whis are larger then I’m comfortable with yet, so it seemed like the perfect fit. He’d jump, I’d ski. We’d meet later and hit the park, following it up with an Airdome session. Despite the rain that threatened to change our plans, Connor figured the Whistler Jumps would be good for an hour or so…so off I went to ski. We met up an hour later, changed into our park gear and grabbed the DH bikes.


First ride up in ‘09
