Awesome dude. I'm gonna take a look around at some tire options and depending on what I find I'll give you a shout. Really appreciate it

You totally should.. it's a great atmosphere/vibe. Just pick up a set of CX tires. The Schwalbe Racing Ralphs are supposed to be great (I have a set but haven't mounted them yet), and I had a great time on the Michelin Mud2's last year in all conditions.
No way, I ride past that park all the time. My girlfriend is at College and Ossington and I take Harbord across several times a week. If I see some guy drowning in mud I'll stop and say hi, haha.
And yeah, having had some time to think about it at work, I definately will be coming out come september. It'll be a good way to not get fat and lazy during the off season and it just looks like alot of fun.

Analogy to auto-racing... the tires they use in the Swedish Rally look totally ******** they're so narrow, but it's the same idea of cutting through vs. floating on top:
And my mind has just been blown...
