OBB Victoria is Open on Monday May 21st
Yep, we’re open for the long weekend. 12 Noon – 5pm. Come say hi after (or before) your rides!
Will is our newest mechanic; he’s a Thunder Bay transplant by way of Whistler, and splits his time between Oak Bay Bicycles Victoria and Oak Bay Bicycles Westshore. Some questions:
First bike, current bike? My first bike was a no name blue kids’ bike we found at the dump; right now I ride a 1973 Marinoni and I sold my DH bike for school.
Least favourite bike? My V10 was great, but just not the right bike for me or my riding style. I’d go for a Flatline as a big bike these days.
Whistler girls or Victoria girls? I work with Jenny Skinner.
Most terrifying thing you’ve seen in a bike park? Getting caught behind an XC guy on an early 90s rigid bike down A-Line.
Slippery Salmon or Nac Nac? Definitely a nac nac, because one of the first times I went to Whistler I went up the chair with this 9 year old kid on a way-too-big Norco Sasquatch and he’d never jumped his bike before; he said “I saw a nac nac in a magazine, and I decided to try it on my brother’s bike” and he eventually landed one. So rad.
