MTBco Sasquatch Hunt

The club is really trying to step it up this year with events that include everyone.  First up is the Outbound Cycles Sasquatch Hunt, a poker ride on the trails of Powers Creek.

Not only did you have to ride the course and collect cards to make a good hand, but there were bonus prizes for capturing Bigfoot, one of our members dressed up as a sasquatch.

I spent the day shuttling everyone up, to the tune of 11 full loads of riders.

We had over 70 riders sign up, and close to 100 people in total participated in one way or another, raising over $1000 for the MTBco.

Here’s the only pic we got of the Sasquatch.  Pretty big feet, eh?

Rock on, Dawn.

..and Justin entertained us with his impression of Predator (click the pic to see what I mean).

Scouting Report

OK, so the skiing is lame but there’s too much snow to ride bikes.  Only one thing to do, explore on snowshoes…

Some of the other locals have been out looking around a lot, so I tagged along today to see what the potential was up on a nearby ridgeline.

Yup, looks like crap.  I guess we have another project to add to the list. There’s a trail here, all ready to go and great potential for more.  Hard to believe that the world still doesn’t know about the riding in the Okanagan.
