Looking to get back into biking guys.. If a meet goes down, I'd be down.. I live in St-Jerome, and have been scoping out some spots on foot recently, there's a lot to ride all over the place.. Cheers
It was a lot of fun, great first ride of the season. Couple trails were muddy and wet which made it challenging on the west side but worth it.
I went to rigaud this weekend. First time I go on a trail in about a decade. Damn I missed it. I think this year ill stick to rigaud with my hard-tail and next year we'll see. Either I upgrade my front end with new shock and disc brake, or I buy a soft-tail bike.
If your looking to build a bike, I have a Jamis Dakar Xam ii (2009 model) frame set with an FOX RP23 (worn, might need a rebuild) rear shock that I'm willing to let go cheap.
Faisable en hardtail ? J'ai déjà fait bromont et mont blanc avec mon hardtail...If you guys wanna do a local meet, there is the trail behind the cemetery. It's very short, but it's got a few crazy jumps and banks.
^ You have no idea how jealous I am that you owned a BB7.
I've been trying to find a 03+ model that hasn't been too destroyed the past few years with no luck
Still looking...
Anyways I have your generic DH bike: Norco Shore
It's a bit old and it's a cross between freeride and DH and only has a travel of 7" but it's gotten the job done. That said I've been bottoming out the past year or so because I've been trying tougher and tougher lines and am now in need of a new front fork at the least.
Sadly I was in a motorcycle accident earlier this year and was cut up pretty bad with a slight MCL tear (first degree of 5 I believe) so I have yet to go to Bromont. I didn't even purchase my season pass, which I have done for the past 5 years.
Here's my bike model, however mine has different components on it:
And here I am on it my first season at bromont taken from a point a shoot camera that my dad had.
I usually go myself or with my dad but considering he is getting old, it's getting harder and harder to go with him not to mention it's not as enjoyable anymore. Yeah he's ex military and in great shape for his age but he can't keep up.
Sucks not having any buddies into awesome sports like DH :/
^^ no brainer

Don't know what year or condition this is in, but pretty cheap at 900$
Hey, i'm new in St-Jérome too. At the moment, the only nice place i saw was the church. But if you go down the 117, there is this nice spot in Prévost. Right beside a school close to the 117.
