Hey all you fellow cyclists, Thursday 6pm: On the Gatineau Parkway there is a 40m stretch at the St. Raymond overpass, and then the parking area at Champlain Lookout is bare. Between these two points you'll have to strap on some planks and throw that hunk of titanium over your shoulder.
For the nordic skiers, Wednesday, the 8cm of wet stuff was not packed but as there were some Profac skidoo tracks that provided good marathon skate trails. The grooming began Thursday with tracks set on one side of the Gatineau Parkway from Asticou and the center rolled. The best skating was the center track of the Champlain Parkway from the Gat pkwy to Fortune pkwy. Amazing, smooth hard pack, with just enough grip at 6pm. Fast. Going down Blacks was a blast (especially since tracks were not set on the Champlain Pkwy). It was starting to ice up by 7pm so from Notch back to Gamelin the chewed up snow dictated a double-poling session. Should be another good weekend, as I know Rosmarie wants at least another 2 weeks of skiing! Speaking of Rosmarie, don't forget to spring those clocks forward if you plan on meeting at the Farm for the two wheel group riding clinic. cheers Eric, PS. Have you heard about the new BikeMay? It has little wheels and folds up into a daypack for those spring skiing sessions! ------ Club Office: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (613) 230-1064 Web/mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cyberus.ca/~obcweb Newsletter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cyberus.ca/~obcweb/Newsletter ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: [email protected] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?aVxiDo.a2i8p1 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
