You were out that day!

My coworkers think I'm a little off centre. Good for you.
My limit is -30. I really don't know how to dress after that and also, how does bike handle it.

Stay upright

[zephyr16]

what kind of riding does everybody do?

[oldy57]

I am from Birds Hill area. I ride a recumbent trike mostly north of Wpg and Birds Hill Park. I also collect vintage and antique bikes.

[mcleodja]

anyone know any good routes and places to tour in manitoba

[Snow_canuck]

YO YO YO!!! I'll be riding the Pembina bike route, I'll be at the Forks tonight. I might also go out Poratge to the Perimeter and back down Roblin, down Wellington cres. Then home via Stafford/Pembina. If I'm late I'll just head out Portage, over the bridge into Assinaboine Park, then Stafford/Pembina home.

See you all out there. I'm the guy in the red jersey.

Anyone ever cycled Winnipeg to St. Ambroise Beach Provincial Park? Looks like a nice short/long ride, about 80km one way.

[AtomicCactus]

Certainly not from here, but will be working in Brandon 2-3 weeks per month until November. Looking for a source for a used bike for that time frame. OR, I may just by a cheapy and sell or donate when I leave. Any suggestions out there. I will be flying in/out of Winnipeg, so I could look there for a source as well.

I'm living in Steinbach at the moment (not from there), and make frequent jaunts out to Sandilands. Someone was kind enough to create some fun-as-hell single-track out in the ecological reserve.

There is at least one decent bike shop in Brandon, maybe two. Did you get a bike yet?

[mennoscot]

Hello Manitobans!
Just moved to Morden, originally from Steinbach. I'm getting the feeling I'm going to want to get into the biking scene in this area (and the fact a co-worker runs a great little shop down here called Tinker Creek Cycle doesn't hurt.)
My wife and I are currently looking into buying a Chariot trailer for our 9-month old. We'd love to find a good used one, but not sure they exist. E-bay feels a bit dodgy for this sort of purchase. Any suggestions?

[A.Hutchings]

Hey from Winnipeg mennoscot ..

Have you tried looking in the local Buy and Sell ? ( www.buyandsell.ca) for a used bike trailer ?
