Freedom...

I've been locked down in the basement for the last 4 days with my dad doing the wiring and prepping for drywall. Back to training at night due to the cold but I for out today for a few hours. The thermometer said -6 but the wind had other ideas... Not what I was hoping for but at least I wasn't inhaling saw dust...

Boys will be boys...

Best one in a while....

Had one of the nicest rides of the winter so far on the weekend... Pre-Arctic Vortex!!!  Lots of hills and great snow covered gravel roads... And finished with a tail wind which is always nice....

Came across a group of Birders watching a great grey owl and had a quick science lesson on how it's "Ontario's largest owl"...

Always a good time.....

Had the chance to get together with Trek Canada MTB Team over the holidays for a day of fun at Joyride bike park. Lots of laughs and good to catch up with everyone on the latest adventures. Some going south, some back to school, some staying home in the cold and some new to the Team... Welcome Soren Meeuwisee!!!!  Glad to have her on the Team... 
If you get a chance to head over to Joyride 150... You won't be disappointed with the variety of skills you can develop ad fun you will have!!!
