i figure since we dont have the number of people that calgary and the other major mountain biking cities, ill just make a thread for the whole of manitoba. So post up, let us know where and what your riding. I myself am in Brandon riding whatever i can find on my Norco six and my Giant stp

I used to live winnipeg... Had a little spot with some decent sized jumps... rode the forks skatepark a lot as well as the East ST Paul Skatepark but that was weak sauce. I did ride my street rigged wolverine... but now I dont live there anymore... I miss having somewhere to ride... its bad down here.

hey guys whats up? im a BC girl but might be moving to live with my boyfriend in minnedosa manitobia, for a few months while taking some schooling in brandon for more paramedic training. just wondering if there anything to ride around there? i mostly freeride, and dh race but got myself a stp and wanna get my tricks down dirt jumping. my man has a farm so illprob end up building some dj's, but is there anything close to a dh trail around that area? here's my website with my video to what i usually ride, any info would be great... www.britneeboychuk.com

thanks britnee

I would but I don't live their anymore... but I'll be back for christmas...

Regardless... You could go to Whittier park when the snow clears... those are the only jumps I know of... Other than the odd jump here and there. Also at Spring Hill there's sort of a DH track on the one side of the hill. Problem is those are in Winnipeg... but I'm sure you'll make a visit or two there anyways.

If you need it that bad, dont come here. No way in hell would i leave B.C to go ride my bike in Manitoba. Thankfully i dont have to make that choice, as im already stuck hereCry .

I live around Austin MB. Me and a buddy have a few jumps, but their not too big seeing as how we are just starting. Other than that i go to either Rae Trail, or Epinette Creek trail.
