And Tomorrow...The Woooorld
The same company that brought us The Palm Islands, Al Nakheel Properties (Nakheel Corp), have done it again expanding their portfolio of man-made islands with this latest Dubai island project shaped like the continents of the world. The World will consist of between 250 to 300 smaller private artifical islands divided into four categories - private homes, estate homes, dream resorts, and community islands. Each island will range from 250,000 to 900,000 square feet in size, with 50 to 100 metres of water between each island. The development is to cover an area of 9 kilometers in length and 6 kilometers in width, surrounded by an oval shaped breakwater. The only means of transportation between the islands will be by marine transport.
Construction has begun on the $US 1.8 billion project which is set to be completed by the end of 2005. It will be located 4 kilometers off the shore of Jumeirah, close to the The Palm Jumeirah, between Burj Al Arab and Port Rashid of Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Each island will be sold to selected private developers and are expected to have pricing beginning at Dhs. 25 million (US$ 6.85 million).

See These Killer Waves
Go to my global warming site to see the latest killer tsunami pictures taken off a memory card from a couple's camera from BC. Their camera was found destroyed. They did not survive.

Major Ride
For some reason I have an incredible desire to try and ride this thing. Does anybody in Ontario or Quebec have anything like this? To sell? To try out. Let me know. The seat looks as though it provides some suspension, but check out those tires. What brand is this? Anyone?

Global Warming?
Mad Cloud Desease
Mad Cloud Disease is described as the new persistant problems with the lack of weather at Whistler. It's like total cloud cover but no flakes are coming out of them. And not to mention that fact that the snow level is moving upwards by 300 meters worldwide. What will ski operators do?
They'll have to deal with a lot of SNIRT.

Heckler
This is a new blog about mountain biking in Ontario and Santa Cruz bicycles.
As the season approaches, the excitement looms. Soon we'll all be rippin' up the trails and enjoying springtime. I fully intend to spend more time on my favorite hobby as soon as this temperature breaks and spring starts to appear. I mean it's been a rather nasty winter, but the skiing has been good if not just a tad cold.....brrrrr
I own a Santa Cruz Heckler with all the trinkets and I can say this. The Heckler will not disappoint you. I loooove it. In fact it pretty much goes faster than I can and have crashed a few times. You must concentrate as you are usually goin' sooooo fast, over every kind or terrain that crashes are inevitable. I was getting a wash out problem on turns with the front, but solved it by putting a fat tire on the front. This solved the traction problem and created a slight hazard. Now it kicks up large sticks that can jam in the forks. It's happened 3 times and caused endos, but I can live with it. Anything for more traction. I'm hoping to find some new trails and crazy types to ride with this year. Sunday's?
I ride at Ravenshoe (live nearby) but I enjoy getting to ride Milton. I see you have to pay to ride the top now! They trails are actually better at the falls north of there, I find.
I used to ride with Doug and Shane but haven't heard of them lately. Shane rides Thin Blue Line unless he's mashed it and gotten something else.
So here's a toast to the upcoming season and a thanks to Silent Sports for selling me such a fine steed. It was worth every penny. Thanks Dan.
Pictures, links and podcasts to be posted here soon.
