2 weeks ago took a family a 3 day family get away to Horseshoe near Barrie. It was a surprise from Joely the destination. She told me to pack the bike so I could go for a ride for a couple of hours. She didn't even tell me she had packed my full face and armour.

This was only 5 days after they officially opened. And Joely told me to go ride my heart out. It was a gift from her for all the stuff I do during the winter to support her coaching.

From about 3 weeks before July 1st. No machines where used for building other then hauling. It was built every bit by hand.

The entrance to the 3rd run that was still under construction when I was up.

Mr Chris

The guys who are working on this are working with a beer league budget and love riding. Hopefully they can make this happen.

Hearing about how you two support each others riding is awsome. A day of riding is such a thoughtfull gift.

Had to do with their inspection certificate for the lifts that will be done after the 6th. Here in Quebec MSA shut down 1 week ago for skiing while in full operation and a good 5-6ft packed snow base on the trails. Bromont ski trails have a ton of snow and even the last berm before the lift 4ft but they intend to open this Saturday, :rollseyes: remains to be seen.

Only reason MSA is closed to skiing is not enough people go this time of year otherwise they could ski all month of May easy. Their supposed to open the DH trails May 28th but…..!!!
