Spring is here and the youth rides have started.
I actually thought I was going to miss out on the first one this year. After three big laps with the stag on the weekend I had a very sort wrist (tendonitis is the scourge of the mountain bike lifer…), to the point that I couldn’t hold on to the handlebar. Luckily my friend Dave has a pharmacy in Kelowna, and hooked me up with some magic ointment. Unbelievable. Good as new in minutes.
Anyway, we have a mix of kids that have been with us for the past couple of years, and some new faces. Everyone shreds, which is always good.

As always, things turned into a sunset session at the Redemption step up. Boys and their bikes…
There’s also a beginner group starting now. Linette took the new kids over to the high school for some skills work before they go out to the woods. Looks like they’re having a good time too.
If you want to join the gang, you can register at Freedom Bike Shop in Penticton.
