I'm looking to meet new riding buds. my local boys are riding less, and I want to ride more!
49, experienced, AST1, all the safety gear, my main interest is tree and drainage adventures, happy to pull skis and shovel.
Most of my time is spent in Blue River, Vale and Mcbride. I work 8&6 so every second week is wide open.

Reply here or DM me if your group has room for a spare, or if your in the same boat as me. Lets get out there!
My next next days off are Dec 18 to Dec 23, anxious to line something up.

Feel free to hijack this and post your own needs, wouldn't hurt to have a current "nobody rides alone" type of thread in here.

I might be down for a ride. Haven't been out yet this year but 20 years of riding.
I'm off from the 13th until the new year. Maybe we can get a 4some out of this lol. I know myself and @Tchetek talked about a ride together a few years ago after swapping parts or a kids sled.

Me? Not sure. I don't claim to have the best memory lol.

Looks like a little weather action, hopefully it piles up.
Does anyone have certain days in mind yet?

Well if there was a trip to not hold anyone back it would probably be this one.

My buddies wife is away and mine is on a road trip to Saskatoon for my other kids hockey.

We have one kid each to look after so I guess they are coming sledding too!

I’ll be a running a hot mess to fit life in.

I still have my new sled in hiding from my wife. She knows about it and has seen it, but it’s best that I didn’t remind her by having her look at it.

But she got her new wheels today so my sled doesn’t need to hide anymore.
