Hello, I just moved to Montreal from Vancouver and I'm really missing the mountains. I'm looking for anyone interested in getting out with our awesome bikes to shred some trails in the east coast.

I have a truck ready to shuttle. I know with the snow may be challenging to find something to ride but if you know somewhere where we could try it, I'm more than down to go for it. And if it's just impossible at the moment, would be nice to start meeting people interested in ridding as soon as the weather and the snow allows it.

Send me a message (I'll get to it sooner than answering here most likely) or post here and lets ride!!

Cheers riders.

Good to hear from you. I hit mt.Royal after the first snow, but the ground was not frozen yet. It made for a long and hard ride with Maxxis wetscreams on om M6. Mt.Royal is kinda like jibbing. You ride a section for a while and then move to a new spot. You ride the harder stuff on top till youve had enough, then you take "the long way home" lots of good lines from about halfway down.
Im down for a snow ride anytime, dh or hardtaill, although id much rather be on my dh. Nothing stops the M6!

My name is Mike. You know where to find me.

Super stoked! All my friends think im crazy for riding in the snow, glad to find someone one the same level. Where do you live? Im in Lachine or Montreal west ...right on the border. I rode to the mountain plenty before, but if im keeping the wetscreams on, im taking the metro this time. Lol Talk about rolling resistance. i think Ill just switch them up. Anyways, Im down for next weekend, if its not freezing cold. keep in touch!
Cheers!

Hi Francisco, Mike, I moved to Montreal last summer and I miss shredding on the trails too. I went to MSS bike park and Oka trails. They are just awesome. I ride DH, AM. I live in Bois Franc. Can I join you guys together for a ride?

Mother nature changed our plans this weekend. Riding in snow is great. Climbing in powder, not so much! I'm glad we've got some new riders on board. Cheers guys! Let's make it happen next weekend.

Unless you guys have skis for your bikes, looks like we are sh*t-out of luck for this week-end.

I went up the mountain yesterday, it's a nice drive up and down but all the in forest trails are too soft...

Oka trails seem open though and rideable...

Hello guys, how is everyone doing? Seems like I won't be able to join you for a ride as work just asked me to come tomorrow to do half a day of work Frown what about next Saturday? Feb 25th? Seems like next week, weather isn't going to be as snowy ad this one was.

I was thinking, should we create a WhatsApp group for all the interested people?

If you want to text me this is my number 6043141247. Number is from bc.

Cheers

I'm down for Saturday! What time were you thinking? I could be there by 10. I'll call you when I get there. I normally start at the gazibo by Beaver lake. What time can you go till? They are calling g for rain, but I'm still going. Might not be any snow left by next weekend...
