Whistler Day 3


Okay, enough cross-country warmup, time to get serious. We book a 1/2 day bike park lesson which includes bike rentals, armour, full-face helmets, and lift passes. The lessons normally cater to 6 or so pupils but we luck out and get an instructor all to ourselves at the normal group rate. Instructor Mike leads us to the top and takes us down B-Line which is a fantastic introduction to the park. It has gentle bermed corners and is built for speed. We do a total of 5 runs on various intermediate and black diamond runs. Only one wipeout apiece.

Did I mention that Whistler rocks?
