The 2008 Season is in the books…and we’re back yet again to honour those riders, racers and builders who really deserve it. We saw a little bit of everything during ‘08- from a late start thanks to Mother Nature, the end of an Era with the last Psychosis Race, a few broken collarbones, ankles and such, some new trails being built and old ones being revived in addition to local races and trail days that saw great turn outs and plenty of support. It seemed as though no matter what was going on in this crazy world of ours- people rode the heck out of their bikes!
For the 2009 Alberta Freeride Awards, we are changing things up a bit…the entire affair will happen
online- from the nominations, to the voting and finally the results!
