I'm right next to Fish Creek, so I try to take my hardtail out there when I can. COP is pretty nice if you're comming in to town. But Moose Mountain it my favorite. You just need a couple of trucks so that you can shuttle up the mountain.

BTW, if anyone's ever down for riding in Fish Creek, let me know. I love riding down there. It's nice for a spur of the moment ride.

I think there should be a beyond urban assualt for some freeriding soon!Someone set it up and I will try and show... preferably after stampede :)

btw dirt jumping is always sweet... wouldn't mind heading out fora day of that either..

I'm always up for dirt jumping!! The problem is that there aren't any good trails in Calgary. I've been trying to find a good spot to dig, but I think my lack of a truck is limiting my options. Most of the spots in town have too many rocks, or crappy setups. I want to take my BMX out if they're smooth enough. Looks like i'm stuck at COP again riding their's.
