looks like the trees would have caught you before you slid to far. you might want to stick to parking lots, more room for you.

Re: April Conditions

Back to the alpine for a 1/2 day as some friends showed up to ride. Great day again except for my brain fart as i got to close to the side of the trail and almost slid off. But +20c and bluebird made up for any pain. Higgins.

yikes that could have been expensive...cheers:beer:!

Re: A couple pics from renshaw on saturday.

Me and my buds had a riot on Saturday. Great snow, great weather and a bunch of getting stuck. Managed to go over the bars a few times. Haven't did that in a few years and forgot how much it hurts!:p Still nursing my sore muscles.

glad u posted a pic of the creek adventure, explains why your ski tip was so inverted. Hope sunday's ride went good for ya. The Nytro had fun in Lucille:cool:

Yea sunday was good till my ecu melted! Had to get towed out. Gonna have to buy a turbo nitro here soon. I love the horse power, but this being towed out is for the birds...and cats!:p:d Yea my ski tip is a little off kilter. Pulls on the trail now. Nothing more money can't fix! Yeesh this sport can be expensive.

Re: April Conditions.

On top of the world for another day in McBride! But wearing out skags and skis fast with some of this dirt riding. But the payoff is worth it! Higgins.

Re: April Conditions.

More people showing up for a final spring rip! Another beautiful day but a big slide had come down and a crank went down later in the day! Only a 1/2 day ride. Not many pics.

Well the Grand Finale for McBride for this season. But what a week it was, punched into some new territory and found some new stuff in our old haunts. Long bluebird days made for some great adventures!! Thanks to Treemongrol, Cr500 and BBToys for their contributions for our sled removal. See Ya! Higgins.

Rode Lucille on the weekend about 3" of fresh on a real nice layer of ice, had cooled down for the weekend and made it nice and hard, sorry for lack of pictures as camera got left at home.
