For "throw back Thursday" 

 

Tokai DH WP Champs 2000. Styling it on my Wheeler, when there was still pine on the lower sections.

I remember that section well.  Used to jump the little ones next to that and then moved up to the big one - all on my old rigid fork Trek.  Loved it there - and just after that snaking through the trees.

Ah man...

This post makes me want to cry - will never take riding in Tokai for granted ever again!

This corner developed so much speed. Really amazing part of the trails, the action was like, "on you" from the moment you crossed the road above; jump, left, right, jump, LEFT!, jump, left, riiiight and pray for grip!

 

The back tyres I peeled off the rim in that berm, lost count.. ha ha

Anyone got any pictures of the wooden ramps in vasbyt?

Man they were like the highlight of coming down there.

That first one always haunted me. Took forever to find the stones for that one
