WELCOME TO THE ULTIMATE MOUNTAIN
BIKING PAGE
Hello Everyone, I am Gary Briggs. I like to Mountain Bike at
Algonguin Provincial Park, Hardwood Hills and on the Trails around my place. Algonquin
Park has a mountain bike trail called The Minnesing Mountain Bike Trail. It has 4 loops,
the first one is 4.7km and ranges in difficulty, the second one is 10km and has a lot of
boggy stretches along with some big hills. The third loop is 17km is about as the same as
the second loop but it has a lot of steep inclines and big mud holes (the best) and
finally loop four is 23.4km long and is a combination of all the loop, it is especially
very rocky. Check out Algonquin Provincial Park.
Hardwood Hills has, I think one of the best trails
I've road on. Hardwood Hills has a great verity of trails ranging from easy to very
difficult.Hardwood Hills also hosts the World Cup mountain bike races. I think the sport
rocks and that is all I have to say...........YA!
