The gang at the end of Cat Nip
It seems to be where I’m doing most of my riding these days. Not that I don’t like Cumberland, but the trails over on Forbidden Plateau are a bit more challenging, a lot more fun, and you can do them as a shuttle and skip the grueling climb! Not that I’m lazy, but climbing is still a challenge for my ankle… (And my heart and my lungs and… lol) (more…)

I ride between 3-5 times a week but this week was an excellent one for me.

He finally found the charger for his old BLT light and so we went to check them to make sure they were still working and the rechargeable battery still had lots of life. We chose Moe’s Misery since it was an easy trail we both knew well and should his lights fail, an easy hike back to the car. Fortunately his lights worked, the battery held out, and now I have someone else to night ride with. (more…)
No, I’m definitely not suffering from it, that’s the name of my new favourite trail! I was first introduced to Cabin Fever by Colin last fall but only got to ride it once before I left to spend a long, cold Winter in Regina, SK. We’ve ridden it a couple of times in the past month and each time I swear the trail becomes a lot more fun. (more…)
