A few friends went out to film this a little while ago. And, no, this isn't
a Transition ad...lol.

I heard through the grapevine that Bike Magazine wanted to do a big spread on Galbraith in an upcoming issue, and the local Whatcom County Tourism board said, "Ahhh, no thanks."

Anybody confirm that before I talk to them? If it's true, are they nuts? Maybe they think we're all just a bunch of punks with no money or talents to bring to the community - if so, we have some serious educating to do.

Hey Rod,

I honestly don't know, but that doesn't sound right. My friend works for
Whatcom Co. Tourism and was the person that helped put this particular vid
together.

I doubt they'd tell Bike "no thanks" as her husband is also a builder in
town. Bike's done a bunch of stuff on Galbraith in the last couple of years
though..as Vernon Felton (one of their primary writers) lives in town.

Stevens Pass Bike Park Update

Posted by: "Eric Brown" ebxtreme@earthlink.net   ebxtreme

Tue Sep 14, 2010 11:00 am (PDT)



Not sure how many folks here have been following this, but this was on the
Stevens Pass FB page today.

"After 5 years of planning, environmental review, and federal permitting
process, we are excited to announce that the Stevens Pass Bike Park has
gained final approval to begin construction. Given the time of the year and
proximity of the coming winter, we will use the coming months to plan final
construction details."

Now, anyone that rode Whistler in the early days knows it was nothing like
it is today. So, don't get too excited just yet..it'll take them a few
seasons to get a bunch of trails in, but this is really good news for the
biking community.

Cheers,

EB
