A LITTLE MTB STOKE: SUN VALLEY WITH LYNNE WIELAND (BANANA PANTS)

[Willy]

I had to pass on this trip but thought I would share. Peak Travels, who I've skied and filmed with in the past took a trip through parts of Idaho on behalf of the Idaho Ski Area Association to film summer mountain biking at the areas. This clip is a daily edit from Sun Valley and features Lynne Wieland, also known as Banana Pants from Hot Dog, The Movie. She's working as a Marketing Assistant at Bogus Basin but broke away for a few days to travel with the group to shoot at SV, Grand Targhee, as well as Bogus. I wish I could have gone but other obligations got in the way. Judging by this, looks like they had a fun time.

It's been too long since I've ridden in Ketchum.

SO much great riding, and such low crowd factor.

Gotta get back!

Here's a little more MB footage with Lynne and the Peak Video crew. This was at Grand Targhee and is a little more 'stoke-worthy'.

It would be great to get @Lynn Weiland to chime in.

Do we really need to keep calling her "Banana Pants"? She's done quite a bit of solid career oriented work post Hot Dog. Most of us know her by her real name now.

It's just a reference point, mainly for those who may not know her real name. She still refers to that character name when speaking of herself, at times.
