MTB Whistler Day 6 & Epilogue

 On Saturday Bowen was too hurt to keep riding, so I rode by myself. This time I resolved to ride every lift in the park except Fitzsimmons Express. To my surprise many of the trails were closed --- Midguard was closed, parts of Unamoss and Blue Velvet was closed. I tried a few more tech trails but as I got more tired I switched to riding more flow trails and dialed it back on the jumps. Still, by the time I returned the bike my hands were sore and I was so tired I couldn't even contemplate swimming. 

On Sunday, we checked out of the AirBnB, walked back to the Legends hotel and waited for our shuttle back to YVR. While waiting we saw a group of Asian cyclists loading up a car with bike boxes and spoke to them. Turned out that they were top end competitive MTBers from Hong Kong, able to clear A-line and Dirt Merchant. They spoke to us about various events and soon we had to get onto the bus.

The bus dropped us off at YVR around 3:00pm. We got to the hotel and checked in, and went to get food, first at Dim Sum Now inside a food court on the second floor of a non-descript building. The dim sum took some time but it was made fresh and quite yummy.

Then we went to Prata-Man for Satay and Hainan Chicken rice. The Hainan chicken rice was great but the Satay was disappointing.

On the way back we stopped by the supermarket. Bowen bought Longans and then we found every flavor of popping candy we could for Boen, plus a few bonus candies.
The stay at the hotel was non-descript but their shuttle service was efficient in the morning and we made it home with no problems.
