The Results!

Pingu TAP Day

 It turned out to be a great day up on the mountain, with a relatively small turnout! The boys on the tools brought loads of power nonetheless! Objectives for the day were to buff the already sculptured 'Dunbar Line' from the entrance to the ladder drop, with some minor additions, and to get to work a little lower down.

Old drop in to Pingu, with the new line cutting through from riders right
We spent most of our day on the soupy log ride, that seemed that there was no planning in place when originally constructed. Three massive logs lined the trial in parallel, leaving only one small line on the high right hand side, other than forcing a sketchy slippery log ride.

Due to the nature of the position of the logs and their supports, water naturally pooled under and surrounding the logs, consequently collecting years of organic topsoil and mulch matter. Our goal was to remove the impending logs, and several boulders to build some consistency back into that section of trail. And considering it is located just following a nice flowy downhill stretch, imperative to clean up to hold any sort of speed into the next couple of corners!

And the results... Logs gone, rocks rolled away, organics relocated...

Mark giving the final delicate touch!!

Flow down to BAAAM... pump, roll, double... just play!

There's plenty of gold in them rollers too!

Dan, working hard to ensure all riders are pleased!

Dan testing roller gap distance... spot on!!

Head up and check it out and let us know what you think!

Another couple of trail days, and we should see quite the trail transformation!!

Keep tuned to our Facebook page for info on our next event!

Trail Adoption Program

           After having spent a few painful winter months visualizing berms and flow, waking up with hot flushes after having tons of "those" bike dreams, we're getting out there again to caress a little more flow out of a classic Shore favourite! Pingu has seen riding legends test the limits of their necks with sweet flat huck head slaps and vert sapping rock skidders.

Head Slap?! The infamous Pingu drop.            

           Our mission is to combine the prestige and high-fiven' old skool fun, with flow and speed of new skool berms and doubles, or triples, or... well, we'll try to leave it open trail interpretation!

Dunbar's Cam Porteous taking the new dirt line, alongside the old drop in line.

            The more hands and trail experience, the better! So drop down corkscrew, and come see us if you're local! We're going to need berm testers and beer holders, and everything in between!! Let's put a new face on an old timer!

When: Sunday 10th March, 2013

Where: 10am @ Old Buck parking lot, Mt Seymour

Or: Anytime until around 3.30 on the trail!

Dunbar Cycles Spin Classes: Monday and Wednesday Nights

Dunbar Cycles is  holding in store Spin Classes!

Nothing beats time on the bike, except when battling Vancouver winter conditions!! Join us in store, on Cycleops Magneto trainers, for an hour of structured, rider specific classes, aimed to make the transition from Winter conditions, back out on the bike as easily as possible!

Classes are structured to emphasize specific disciplines regarding rider's fitness requirements. There will be a dynamic focus on specific fitness characteristics, from base Aerobic fitness and Strength, to Speed and Power. We should be able to incorporate some healthy competition at times as well!

Our classes will advantage you by giving you time on your own bike, give you a capability to assess and learn your own body and fitness level at your own pace, and focus on specific energy groups entitling you to the most effective workout in the hour session possible! Our sessions differ from regular spin classes, as a correctly periodized structure is to be applied as time progresses. This means that instead of just feeling a burn and counting some calories, you will get back on the bike riding harder, faster and further than before winter struck!

The advantage to a spin class of this fashion is that everyone can participate as it is your workout, and you are in control! So come along and join us in a workout that will advantage you in so many ways!!

All you need to bring is your bike, plenty of energy, a towel and water bottle... and a great smile always helps!!


When: Monday and Wednesday evenings, Starting @7.30pm sharp!
How long: Approx. 1 hour
Cost: $10
