i wanna see how many people wanna do tailings pond next sunday.iam out for ridng tomorrow(oct14th)unfortunatly.
sunday oct 22,theres only a few weekends left for riding there iam sure before snow takes over one of the better places to ride then we can do herling through the winter,Iam taking the family up as well as a few friends from work and such.will bring the stove or bbq for coffee or hot choco like last time i was there.
we have riders for all ages and skill levels to show people around.
get that bike out ya just bought for a shakedown or RENT one from Bill @ 5TH gear.hes got a few to rent i think.i recomend warm clothes(and spare socks and such) as well as some decent boots and gloves.
we go for a good time not a raceday.bring the kids too.
Drive north through Hope up into the Fraser Canyon for approximately 10min. The access to the tailings pond is at B.C. Nickelmine Road. You will cross a small bridge over Texas Creek and Nickelmine Road will be on your left. This paved windy road is steep and then turns to gravel. You will come to a fork in the road. Left is how you get to the gate that can only be opened by a Fraser Valley Off-Road Member. If you are just there for the day you can keep left and park 100 meters up the road.
if theres enough interest i'll throw up pie plates for directions at the bottom on nicklemine road.
Couple of questions; first, I've got a CRF230F, would I be able to keep up? I ride it like a 2-cent whore otherwise though, if it came back needing repairs it wouldn't be the first time. Second, do you mind if a stranger such as myself comes along and can I tag along with somebody who knows where this is?
The bike hasn't been out in over a month since my cousin blew the motor on his CR125, I'd love to get out and ride dirt again.
they had a quad course at the 24hr race there,and i saw quads up there everytime this yr while riding.probly good to bring someone else with one so theres a pair of ya.
email 5th gear on here.hes got decent deals.iam considering renting a couple of them for my dad and brother.we need more rental places.
usually around 1030 ish.leave coquitlam around 830-900.i stop at the chevron at the albion exit to get gas then go.
8-10 just with myself and a few friends.hopefully see some of you guys/ladies up there to.I will be at the top in the gate,and probly park down by the small track there so keep and eye on the kids.
if ya get to the gate at the top and its locked,walk up the road and i will come down and unlock it for ya all. platinum coloured minivan with trailer and a sea of hondas.
