"Straitline Components of British Columbia Canada have teamed up North Shore Local Ryan Berrecloth to launch new safety measures for the infamous North Shore and Whistler regions of BC.

 

 

 

Controversy has been stirring over new safety measures for all mountain bikers as mandatory bear laws come into effect as early as this month, banning all lift and trail access to those not compliant. " - The Vancouver Sun, April 1st 09

I looked back and a fricking Bear was in full charge running down my line! I didn?t even have time to move I just let out a yell and held on to the edge the best I could as the bear flew by me and sent it over the creek!

 

 

 

I was freaking out, NOBODY poaches my lines!?
