Is blogging still a thing?

So there I was, drinking beer and looking at the internet. What ever happened to my blog..... I don't think people even realize that I race mountain bikes for a living. I think people know me as that guy who posts weekly POV videos on YouTube about riding on the edge of some scary cliff in the desert. I am a Vlogger now, do I really need a blog? Well, after a two-year hiatus, I just turned it back on because it made me smile. Let me know what you guys think. Times were simpler then. More projects, more problems. Wouldn't trade it for anything. ​

Valemount Bike Park

#followcamfriday fifth and final stop on my tour across Northern BC. Put Valemount on your short list. 
I have ridden many bike parks in my day, and this one is right up there with the best of the best. Not to be confused with Valmont in Boulder, Valemount lies near the BC / Alberta border, just south of Banff National Park. How such a small town can sustain such an amazing trail network is beyond me. Impressive, to say the least.

 Circus stunts or bike park features.... You be the judge. Any time you can pass over the top of your squad, on trail, you are winning. These trails have been thoughtfully created. The attention to detail is obvious from the second you point your bike downhill. You can support the trails HERE 
Picture
Synchronized park riding. Because everything is better with a squad. I was fortunate to get a proper tour from Conor, Glenn and Jacob. Rad Army has these trails on lock.

Turns out that your hands are worthless. Hands are for slowing down and maintaining control. Two things that are less important than the send.

Living life correctly means almost touching your friend's back wheel in mid air. If it looks close on my GoPro, I am basically tire buzzing. Fortunately Jacob whipped right, as I was sneaking under on the left. Timing is everything friends.

Glenn King has more ups than you. At least 1 meter higher than everyone else on this particular jump. That is three feet for you 'Mericans. Where will #FollowCamFriday turn up next? Canadian withdrawal hitting hard!
