JPK, interesting view. Being from Bend OR. and involved in both the Northwest & NorCal scenes, here are my thoughts. NorCal, and I'm including the Delta, has great riding spots and a lot of very cool people, the Northwest also has some very nice places to ride, maybe not as well pubished (could be a good thing). We have many good friends in both venues and spent the summer free riding & competing in both. This I will say, the upper level riders are stronger in the Pacific Northwest then in Cali. No offence to all my boys in NorCal, it's just how it is. I would have to give the edge to the party scene to NorCal, they know what's up.
