Tansky update - 2008/06/19 09:34

Hi,

Our new riding area is getting more trails as 8 out of 260 members contribute. Barb and I surveyed all the trails out there under a COHV grant, and we have 20 km of trail ready to ride, with another 16 km being finished this summer. All built over the last year. If you want a map or the latest news, go here: http://geovisionenvironmental.com/twiki/bin/view/VIORC/JuandeFucaEnduroRiders

Speaking of trail, it doesn't just happen. All those XC riders out there wanting a place to ride that we are welcome and have quality enduros, come out and help. Call/email Gary Nordstrom or myself and we would be glad to show you around. There is winter blow-down to clean, new trails to design, working with the Geritol II crew trail-building, or head off yourself and make your own master-piece.

This Saturday, a crew of us are going out to design 8-10km Hare Scramble and junior enduro circuit. Once that is all flagged in, Turk will be coming in with his trail-building expertise and machinery to build it. Interested in learning how pros build trail? Want to learn? Turk needs helping hands to work with him. Who can come out for a day? If we get enough volunteers we can share the work-load around.

Its a great way to get to know the area and find out what it has to offer the rider. If you are a XC or dual-sport rider, I can almost guarantee you'll like it.

Re:Tansky update - 2008/06/23 10:28

I would like to thank Joyce and Andy for coming out on Saturday and working hard to get the first section of the new HS circuit flagged in and rough trimmed.

I'll be going out all this week if anybody wants to come out and contribute. The plan is to have the 8 - 10 km flagged in and very roughly cut for Turk to start building the actual circuit soon after.

Anybody want a map, just go to the above URL and download it.

Re:Tansky update - 2008/06/25 12:06

For those complainers about how oh so far it is, Tansky is 12 minutes past Boyds, 25 minutes from Sooke. So for the 12 minutes you get legal riding, stunning views from the staging area, riding all summer, hugh cedars like in a park, a HS circuit, etc., etc. I'll open up the trail into the cliffs and rock piles for the triallies to play in once the HS is going. That should make it even more fun.

The HS/junior enduro circuit is starting to take shape. We have 2.8 km flagged, partially roughed in, and surveyed. We will be starting actual construction this Sunday.

I've got my eye on some potential campsites that could be driven to, so they would be good for the family. You could hook into the trail network within a 100 ft of your camper or tent.

Re:Tansky update - 2008/07/02 11:20

Turk and I got out this Sunday to build the first 700 meters of the HS circuit. According to Turk "Its everything I had hoped for in a trail". About one meter wide, flowing, and groomed, it goes past old cedar blocking, thru big fern patches, around 8 ft cedar stumps, and by big boulders for quite a variation. Hoping for 10+ Km when we are done. Will let people know when Turk is going out next if they would like to work with him.

Gary, Roger, and the rest of the Geritol II crew have built a number of challenging and fun single track trails that should give riders a good time. Andy and I rode most of them yesterday before we flagged in the balance of Gertol II's new trail from the end of Upper Sticky Wicket out to the N300. Most of it is in old clear-cut, so they sure have their work cut out for them clearing salal and brush, but it should be a great trail when they are done.

We now have enough trails to give riders a good solid day of riding. Next year we will start putting in trail sign posts to help new riders to the area know where they are. With the terrain, it is quite easy to get twisted around without a map and some markers along the way.

I ride a dirt bike and my wife rides a quad, and my kids have a small quad. What types of machines are allowed in these new trails?

Re:Tansky update - 2008/07/02 19:28

The trails are on public lands so anyone can ride there. There are also over 100kms of forestry road around to tour on the quads, which numerous people do. There is a nice run that goes around the parameter of the Tansky Riding Area on forest road of a couple hours cruise.

Most of the trails are designed with off-road motorcycles in mind. As to suitability, depending on the quad rider's abilities, I would limit them to the solid lined trails on the map. The best thing is to tour around on the solid line trails, then move up to the other trails once you are confident with the area.

We would ask that people who use the area become a VMC member or at least volunteer for some trail-building time to support the trail stewardship. Purchasing a BCORMA Trail Pass to directly support your local trails stewardship is also suggested.
