quotes I don't know where you guys are getting the feeling of attitude from. The story is an honest account of how our entire group was feeling in the context of our adventure at the time. All this literal interpretation of pirates and marauding etc is ridiculous. We were riding singletrack mates. All we left behind was the odd tire track and a whole whack of friendly Canadian "mercis" and smiles. In the week and a half we were there we didn't see a SINGLE OTHER MOUNTAIN BIKER! It's an honest reflection of how we felt. If you really think we were offensively stealing from the Swiss, you're completely missing the essence of the story. And I wonder how many actually read the comments first, then go back to read the story infused with negative sentiments. The only thing we stole was experience. Really great experience. Which, if you actually read the story, you'll see that 99% of the text is spent describing the natural wonder and ingenious mountain infrastructure developed by one of the most amazing civilizations on earth...the Swiss. Colonialists?? Seriously?? This is a story about mountain cycling. Not corporate swindling or stealing oil reserves from first nation peoples. It uses metaphor and analogy to give a sense of context to a really cool adventure in an amazing place. A story that will hopefully inspire others to seek out equally cool adventures in said amazing place. And judging from my trips to Switzerland, and the trail and lift infrastructure over there that is lovingly maintained and incredibly vast, I don't think they have a problem with that. Nor should some of the haters on this website. My two cents.

You forgot a verb in your 4th sentences. "And sure, riding a bike still all of that." (sic.) Perhaps, you intended to type "is"? I hope this helps.

From your recent article... "Climbers don't break." not true AT ALL, might want to check your facts on that.
