I’ve gotten out a couple times this year. But it has snowed since I filmed this and it’s looking colder for the next little while.

Riding season is full on here in Penticton. Trails are dry, trail crews are hard at work, and the days are getting longer. I'm continuing and building my YouTube channel letsgoridebikes, so if want to follow along with what's happening in Penticton and area make sure to subscribe! These are my most recent videos… trying to get one out every Friday for your viewing pleasure.

Is this strictly a mountain biking thread, or is it road bike friendly?

Kelowna is in the mid 20's all week and calling for 29C this Saturday so either way, should be a good weekend to get out for a spin!

The first "race" I've done in a long time. Was tons of fun to push myself and see how I stacked up against the rest of my buddies!

Man does that look fun.
I'll be getting out with some friends at Moose this weekend outside Calgary... see how far I can get before the ol girl gives up the ghost. My rear suspension is in need of a rebuild/replacement badly, but being away from home more often than not hasn't given me a chance to replace it.  :'(

I made it out east a couple weeks ago and was hoping to ride Moraine Lake Highline trail at Lake Louise. Needless to say, things didn't go as planned...

Yuck. Was that through gloves?

No gloves. I think they would have reduced the injury but probably not prevented it. It was a weird freak accident. My buddy was slowing down and stepping off the bike to walk a section he wasn’t comfortable with. The front wheel dropped into a hole and he went OTB onto a serrated rock. Nasty.

Was riding and working out in the Squamish Whistler area last week good times were had. Lord of the squirrels in Whistler was prime and most everything was in great shape
