"Dex Files" - Episode 1

From British Columbia, to California and Oregon, follow Intense/OGC team rider Dexter Robson, in a new 3 part series based on west coast riding life.

In episode 1, we head to one of the best riding towns in all of British Columbia. In early March, Dexter receives his highlighter yellow M9. Fresh with excitement, we spend the day, amidst towering tree's and staggering views, attempting to capture the feeling of how a new bike performs. Silent, and crisp. Choosing one of the nicest days of early spring, and finishing it off with quite a spectacular sunset, in true Squamish fashion. And possibly gorging on some Fat Burger.

We've made a few trips to Squamish over the years, and have shot an excessive amount of sunset shots. It seems every evening invokes this type of light. Perfect riding conditions, making it easy to lean it over.

Special thanks to: GoPro, Outdoor Gear Canada, Easton, Intense Cycles, Giro and everyone else who made this possible.
