Greetings from Winnipeg

Hi, are there any other Winnipeggers here? Or, those from Manitoba?

Not from wpg but spent a few days there visiting and riding. Rode from there east to Kenora Ontario and then up to Maniwaki on a brand new, just opened, traffic free highway.

Manitoba sure was flat and fast until I hit the Ontario border and then it went up.

Welcome aboard to Paceline.

>Mods.. kindly move this thread to general conversation

I grew up in and rode in Baja Manitoba, aka North Dakota. It got a little chilly in the winters back then. No pesky hills either, just an unrelenting headwind. "-40ยบ keeps out the riff-raff" and seems to have worked in my case.

How about a retired Winnipeg... left there in 1997. Had lots of fun riding in the 90s there
