Tue 17th - Sun, rain and hail

After a wee bit of alcohol at The Raven I had real good night sleep and got up about 11! The sun was shining so we went to hit some trails on Seymour with Eric of 243racing and Dan with Johnny leading of course.

All started well with a nice little traverse, a couple of tricky ups called for a push but no big deal, then it started to to get a way more interesting - some nice steeps in short little bursts with way too many roots - well I guess probably just the right amount of roots. Anywho, it was cool.

It was about this time we noticed it was raining way above us above the trees. Of course, as soon as we got out in the open (to climb back up a little) the heavens opened - 3 or 4 minutes later we were soaked to the skin - then the hail started! Fortunately we were near the next trail so dived down it through the falling ice! (nice) and one techy trail or 5 minutes later we were back in The Cove and the sun ws shining - BC weather is so interesting!

I havnt worked out the photo thing on here yet so check in regularly and I'll keep working on it.
