Went out to Fernie Alpine Resort for their last day of summer operations to day with a group of friends. Although we all had a good day I would like to rant a little. My first issue is with their lift system, on one side you have a high speed quad, its fast but has an archaic bike loading system, hooks were so last melenium, also on this side of the mountain there is only a handfull of trails and they suck ass, how about a little raking here and there or maybe a little thought and effort into the trails instead of switch backs down a ski run. Now I will bad mouth the other chair lift. A relic from the eighties that is slower than pedaling up, a twenty minute lift ride is out of the question for a thirty dollar price tag on a lift ticket. The trails off of the slow speed quad are a little funner and have been around for a lot longer but a twenty minute lift ride...Holy Fuck... the last thing I will complain about is the useless lifties at the bottom of the lifts... You are a lifty, lift my fuckin bike, put the hacky sack on the picnick table, leave your poutine alone for a few seconds and lift my bike onto the ow so nineteen ninety three bike hooks so I can get onto my chair without putting my back out. Its your job thats why I paid over thirty bucks to ride your slow ass quad.
Done ranting now....
