Downhill Mtn Bike Sun Peaks
My first time downhill Mtn Biking was at Sun Peaks. The setup there is exception. Great staff, well marked trails and you can rent whatever you need. Highly recommend knee pads, elbow pads and gloves. Of course you need a good helmet. I was there for twilight riding, 3:30 to 7pm.
