Downhill / Freeride

[TheRob]

knvb,

Don't you owe Dude $40 for bailing on a bet you made at the Christmas party? I believe it was about hucking a two or three footer followed by an ollie kickflip off of a table. Something like that? It sounds like we'll be going out next week. Get your bike back from your friendand prepare to get injured.

 

[Dude]

I'm willing to let him off the hook, on account that he hooked me up with a washer, dryer, and new fridge in the last week. He even came over to give Mrs. Dude some sort of demo when I had the boy at hockey. Although she seemed very unimpressed and disappointed, I was grateful to not have to open the owner's manual.

The bitch still turned my shirts pink, though.

 

[knvb]

TheRob, the bet is still on, it's the date, time and whose kitchen table we'll use that's the issue.


Yeah, she "turned" them pink.

An anonymous mountain biking source e-mailed me this link of a video shot by knvb(the rider in this case)during his only excursion to the North Shore. It's no wonder he's been dodging the whole bet thing since Christmas.

13 things you will hear knvb say while mountain biking.

 

[Dude]

Too funny...that looks to be a pretty intermediate trail, too.

We were going up the lift w/ a pro out of San Diego, and he was blown away by how gnar our shite is.

 

[knvb]

Well, I hit the what? Slopes? Saturday up at Whistler with Notty. He's hooked me up with a 'Specialized' I think that's what he called it. I hope its red and has rockets on it. That would be pretty fcuking specialized. Dunno what to expect, but I'll bring the camera for a little video action.

Now Dude, we had a little bet. Well, two actually, but since you won't take off your pants to prove there is no gash between your legs, well have to try a settle the other bet. If Notty gets video of me hucking off a 2 ft. mole hill is that going to be good enough to settle our bet?

If Notty gets video of me hucking off a 2 ft. mole hill is that going to be good enough to settle our bet?

There's probably a better chance of you whacking off a 2 foot mole. Give 'er though, eh!

 

[Dude]

Are you guys actually heading up there?

Remember: the bet called for me choosing the location of the 2' drop. I may have to get myself up there for Saturday.

 

[TheRob]

Dude,

May I suggest this location for your bet? The second drop from the right would be perfect.

 

[Dude]

No, I'm thinking something along the lines of a natural location.

 

[knvb]

Yes we are.

He's borrowed a bike from one of the Trollups who owns a bike shop up on the North Shore. He obviously didn't tell him who the bike was for. Does it have rockets? That would be cool.

Video should be good enough you cheap bastard.

 

[Dude]

It will be good enough if the location is of my choosing. If I can't make it up there, I shall forward said location to Mr.Nott, whom I shall trust with the excecution of the cnut, err...bet.

 

[knvb]

Be gentle. I’m a virgin...

 

[Hands of Stone]

Get some good Lube for the Seat then.

 

[Dapotayto]

Possible outcome for the KNVB space launch?

If you are a dumbass, I am meaning for you to watch the video.

 

[Dude]

After much deliberation and thought, I have decided that the 2nd GLC drop (middle) will be the 2' drop of choice. Perhaps TheRob can assist w/ a photo. The location is ideal, as it is positioned just at the base, in full view of the lifties, riders, and lookie-loos, as well as directly in front of the Garibaldi Lift Company patio. The ride up is a little sketchy for a noob, so carnage potential is not only likely, but embarrassment after said carnage is assured.

I hope to see you do it in person, cnut. Otherwise, a video will have to do.

 

[TheRob]

Here it is. Good luck.

Nice baby steps Pansey... I'm glad I didn't venture up there with you, I wouldn't have been able to carry Notty to the car...

What, no mention or report of the tailgate party...followed by the tickets for drinking in public?

 

[Dude]

Nice, and a 12 of Lucky 7 well earned.

Sorry I couldn't make it...now that it appears you've been bitten by the bug, I'll be happy to introduce you to the Shore.

Is it just me, or does KNVB look a little out of place in the full face helmet?
