Get Revved Up for Spring In the Okanagan
By Rodney Shanks
Finally, after a seemingly endless winter, spring has arrived in the Okanagan! For some this means spring cleaning and house work. For motorcycle enthusiasts like myself though, it means its finally time to ride! Time to get the dirt bike out and go exploring.
With the ever changing terrain, endless trail systems, and several local motocross race tracks, the Okanagan region has some of the best off-road riding/racing in the country. Exploring these trails can also lead to finding some of the most breath taking views the valley has to offer. For those who enjoy getting away from the city and experiencing life on 2 wheels, the Okanagan may be the place for you!
Are you looking to add some excitement to your Easter break? Then join me at the Bear Creek Motocross track in Kelowna. It opens this weekend and is a great local track with plenty of room for spectators and family members to get a good view.
If you are more into trail riding, the Okanagan Trail Riders Association is a great resource. This group is great and not only works to maintain trails, but organizes group rides and fun rides throughout the year.
So, enjoy the change in the weather and get out and ride!
