20 Mile Trail


I have been wanting to get up and ride twenty mile all summre long and finally had a chance the other day. The smoke cleared out of the area for the most part and the weather was awesome. Word on the street is that the Forest Service has cut down some 450+ trees that were blocking the trail. Within a few weeks there was already another handful that lay across the trail when we rode. Above is a picture of a fallen log at the beginning of the trail.

Creek crossing on the way up.

Irene coming off bridge on the way back to the car. Didnt make it quite to Duck Lake due to our short time frame but enjoyed the ride none the less.

Irene attempting some log hop trials thing. It didnt work out to well as I had to go and pull her out from in between some logs. Lack of pictures due to the awesome riding. Friday morning also brought tacky trails to the area which made fo some great mid summer riding in the area.

Shop Shot


A random picture of the Shop. Things have been busy, bikes, bikes and more bikes. All bikes will be going on sale within the next couple of weeks. Check the Star News for updates.

New Bike Day

It was a nice evening in McCall to go out and test out the new bike. We decided to go up to Bear Basin and go for a quick ride. The smoke had somewhat cleared out of the valley which made for some nice scenery.


Graham breaking in his new ride.


So fast So furious.

Got to love the McCall singletrack!



Its a plane, its a bird, no its Dewey!

Pin it!


A parting shot. Graham's new Transition Covert. Its ok to be jealous.... (P.S. Pro Peak Sports is a Transition dealer...)

Lets Hit The Water!



After work the other evening we all decided to head out and go catch some rays. We loaded up the boats and headed out. The girls were up first to do some tubing.


Stokli and Osha were super stoked to be out. Both have become great wakeboarders but were taking the evening off and enjoying some relaxing tubing.

They were sure having fun!

After the tubing the big guns came out. Greg with a tail grab on his new Ronix "The One" board.

Throwing a backflip.

Catching some huge air! Notice how fair outside the wake he is. Guess he made a good choice in gettin that new board. More wakeboarding pictures to come.
