Creating Significant Learning Environments
https://www.endlessbiking.com/eb-culture/2018/3/11/endless-biking-head-to-south-america
My son Levi is a sponsored Pro rider with Endless Biking, Rocky Mountain Bikes, Fox, Shimano and several other companies and is currently in Chile South America preparing for the first race in the Enduro World Series (EWS). Levi and his teammate Anthony will be Farellones Chile high up in the Andes in the next few days to get used to the altitude and prepare for their first EWS race of the season. They then head up to Manizales Columbia where the second EWS race will not only take them through the mountains but also through parts of the city.
The hard work and perseverance that comes from years of dedication and preparation are starting to pay off. The authentic learning experiences that Levi grew up with have prepared him to take on these intense challenges and I can only imagine what this and his future adventures will bring and what lessons will be learned.

One of the safer ways to see Silver Star from my son Caleb’s perspective. This is why we moved to BC…Priceless!
It always amazes me how you long it takes for the snow to melt up in the mountains. Opening day for the Downhill Mountain biking season at Silverstar Mountain in Vernon BC is June 29 this year and like previous years we still have snow at the top. This makes for some muddy biking but it is still great to be out hitting the trails when not too many people are around.
While Caleb and I are biking Levi is working on his final English paper which is due June 30th. Note the sling on Levi’s right arm… broke his colar bone about 11 days ago while jumping off the cliff on Ada Boulevard. See the video below to see how he ended up this way and if you want to see a video of him making the jump, write up about his first broken bone and a picture of his current state check out the post First real broken bone on Levi’s blog.
