Invermere B.C. - Panorama & Mt. Swansea News

Published Sep 20, 2005 at 9:40
Well it’s the end of September and the “bike park” season is winding down around the nation. A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to check out the new additions to the Panorama Mountain Resort Trail System on the closing weekend. I hadn’t been out there since the BC Cup race, which was the opening weekend of the resort. The trail crew did fantastic job of building a more diverse trail system than in previous years. Trails such as the “Insanity Race Course”, and "Crazy Train" have been the premier trails, but after a season of building in 05’ there is a lot more diversity in trail design, and features to ride.

The QnR report - The Good life, Pura Vida 2005!

Published Mar 3, 2005 at 8:37
As a Canadian, biking in January usually involves rain, snow and brutally cold temperatures. This translates to short rides, minimum vertical and lots of clothes to keep warm. This year I said no to the cold and headed South, way south. Imagine riding in 30C weather in the middle of January in Costa Rica! How about 6000 vertical feet in one run! How about not having to worry about any accommodations, food, logistics or even what trail you are riding. "Life is pretty good when all there is to do that day is ride your bike" - Wade Simmons, Pura Vida Costa Rica 2005.
