Anybody riding in their area?

I know there have been bikes out in the Montreal area but up here 70 miles north in the mountains there is still plenty of snow to melt and the run off often freezes on the road add that to the sand and April snow instead of April showers and it is a no go for most, except for a few that is.
This pic was taken Last Wendesday on rte 117 just out side Tremblant very close to the base Motel of our up coming Eastern US/ Canada East rally.
No itwasn't me scouting out potential riding routes!

Wow, hardcore biker there

That's a bit much... I wouldnt be out in that weather but that's just me... seems dangerous.

Wow! That person just won the trophy.

Doesn't seem like you could keep it upright on snow for long.
But I guess he's getting it done.

I got caught in a snow storm rode through it for 65 miles, keep the wheels in the
car tracks and pray! It can be done.

Man that wouldn't be for me with snow on the road like that. First ride this year was March 6th. Have a little over 2000kms since. Still have to be careful on the side roads for the sand on the corners but keeping that in mind taking it easy in those spots. Lots of rain here yesterday and now starting a nice dry stretch for a bit.

Its 30 and snowing here right now, I can't remember such a crappy April. They say by the weekend it should warm right up.

beezer · 05-24-2016, 04:36 PM

**ringadingh** · 05-24-2016, 05:07 PM
