Good day my Ontario friends. The weather sure is nice now ain't it? It's about time we get the ball rolling on Madness In The Mitten II! Peep the video to check out how fun last year was! The video is surprisingly awesome, I suggest watching it. And yes, that's me in the short shorts.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B1mURaO70EMIM is a push race on the 17th, about 4 miles down a river trail. It starts in a parking lot and goes for a hole shot into the skinny ass bike lane. Last year a part of the trail was flooded so we had to hop off our boards, run up a hill, over a train track, and back down and on our boards. It was awesome. The pavement varies from brand new and delicious to pretty bad, to wooden bridges.
Afterwords we had a bitchin' slide jam on The Meat Grinder. The neighbors came out and enjoyed the sunshine with us. This year, on the 18th, we'll be doing a slalom jam too. It should be a great time.
Last year we had 37 people, which we considered a great success. I hope some of you Ontario guys can make it out! Lansing, MI is about 1 hour and 20 minutes from the Ambassador Bridge. If you need a place to crash Saturday night, my dorm, my buddy's apartment, and all sorts of houses are open. And the guys plan it smoke a lotta ganj so this is a weed friendly race, just keep it in the cars and such.
