The Jackalopes in Montreal for Echo`s birthday -Sept 18-19

To celebrate our good friend Echo`s birthday the Rochester`s jackalopes came to Montreal.

We rode DH all day saturday at Bromont and it was a great time. We did 5 awesome rides :

Andy`s special
Radical #20
Big Bang #7 with the crazy "monstre à batterie" start :thumb:
L'adrénaline #18 with the awesome Indescente #23
and we finished by Boomerang #9

It was the first time I rode #23 and I loved it, especially the techinal rock gardens at the start but that teetertotter is ridiculous. It`s the harshest teeter I ever rode BANG! They need StuntMatty and Earl`s stunt building skills

Except for the couple of mecanicals we had that day, everyone had a huge smile at the end of the downhill..........day!

Sorry no pics.

We went back home to party a bit for Echo 29th birthday *cough*cough* yeah right! *cough*

In honor of Echo simulation , in the deckparty movie, of a drunken guy view with boob vision, Theresa and Earl made him a titty cake.

We enjoy a nice dinner cooked by Isa: mmm peanut butter dumplings and pork brochette.

Image

The next moring we hook up with some of the AllezY crew for a long ride in Sainte-Anne des Lacs

Image

Of course we had the pre-ride whisky shot

Image

It was the first time I met McFranck but a guy that can drink whisky in the morning before a ride is OK in my book :D

Image

The trails in SADL are very rocky and technical. Almost everyone had scratches on their pedals and chainring from bashing into the rocks

Here`s McFranck on the big rock that everyone that has been at SADL remembers. It does not look step but their is a small kink at the end that could send a careless rider over the bar.

Image

Here`s Echo on the same descent.

Image

Teresa was on fire with her new Jekyll frame. She climbed like a mad women. Good job treesaw you are really improving.

Image

There is one good thing about trails that are not weekly maintained , we get to play on the falling logs.

Image

Image

We rode for almost 5 hours and everyone was happily exhausted.

Honorable mentions:

Tony for his first xc ride of the year
Earl tactless joke on Tony flat that refered to his earlier crash :

"He needed that flat like he needed a hole in the Head" :lol:

Zoby, which is rapidly improving his skills, who climbed the big flat rock
Sorgie who had to put up with mechanicals on my loaner bike

Great ride everyone!

Jackalopes: it was again a honor to have you in Montreal with us, you guys are always welcome. We will miss you.

Once again Deyv and Isa have proven to be the best hosts. I could not have asked for more for my birthday than a great weekend of DH riding and XC riding, guided by the skilled locals on awesome trails. I think the Titty Cake sums up the weekend perfectly :D

Thank you again for such a wonderful weekend and all of the great foods! Isa & Deyv are amazing hosts!!!!

I seem to ride well with Isabelle and look forward to many more rides together...she makes me climb and I make her do crazy downhill lines ;)

Here's a good picture of Isa celebrating after the last run on our downhill...day.
