This has been an amazing summer for my kids, not only has the weather been fantastic for them to be outside all day but my daughter has learned to ride her bike. My daughter, “Kitty” watches her brother, “Jackson”, get on his bike everyday and rip around. She is so envious of him. I tried […]
Ok… here is the first teaser of the expanded Rep1! Look closely… what are we putting over there??
Lots of people have been asking what we are doing with the expansion side of Rep1. We don’t want to divulge everything but in the next couple of months we will be dropping hints of what is to come. But first we’d like to show you a few images of what we are dealing with! […]
A bigger shadow of my former self went up Cypress mountain yesterday. My legs have been in a funk for over a year and every time I road on them they just hurt. Period. Yesterday was the first time in a long time where they haven’t ‘hurt’!!! But man am I slow… I think the […]

I do have to say that one of the great things about being a personal trainer is that you get used to getting up early. On Sunday mornings when most are still a sleep my alarm rings at 4:45 am. Yes you read it correctly 4:45, I am on the rode by 5:30 and it […]

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon, some coworkers and I went down to Jericho to try out paddle boarding. I had never done it before, but the other three had and it was quite evident! The waves were a bit choppy but we spent about 2hrs out on the water and had a fabulous time. It […]
Last weekend, Krista and I (as well as her fiance and two friends) drove out to North Vancouver to do the Grouse Grind. I had only done it twice before and never timed myself so this trip was all about setting a baseline time for completion! Krista’s goal for the trip was a bit different: […]
Here is a picture of my stats from my Porteau Cove ride this weekend. The biggest thing that I can say, as you start to do longer summer rides, is to make sure your nutrition is in check! Bonked on the way home and it seriously affected my average speed. Electrolytes in the water and […]
The Make-A-Wish Foundation has given us two of the children’s stories that we directly affected last year. After raising over $30,000 for children with life threatening illnesses it is good to see where that money went. The stories are posted in Rep1 so check them out when you come in the door!
The weather has changed and I’ve been back on my bike in Squamish for my second ride of the year! The dry trails were great and I had no problems on some of the more technical spots. Thankfully there were no wipe outs to test the repaired shoulder but all felt great! Now if only […]
