JoyRide 150

GTA: Looking for Adventure? JoyRide 150 Indoor Bike Park

January 15, 2013 By Lena

When I first started blogging, I often featured events in and around the Greater Toronto Area that may be of interest to my readers – especially if they’re family friendly and an affordable way to show the kids a good time. Thing is, over the years my readership expanded, and I felt kind of weird just speaking to my local friends.

However, I’ve decided that this year, I’d like to (somewhat) return to my roots and feature 1-2 local family events per month. Just my way of staying in tune with my community and keeping my blog relevant for long-time fans.

Now my first featured event is something I know boys of all ages dream of – joyriding with bike pros.

WHAT – Specialized is inviting kids of all ages from across the GTA to ride with three pros who are pushing the limits and redefining what it means to get air on their bikes. Daniel Dhers, Mike Montgomery and Darren Berrecloth are three of the top Freeride Mountain Bikers (BMX, Dirt Jumps, Big Mountain) and GTA kids will have a chance to ride with their idols at Joyride 150 – Canada’s best and most popular indoor mountain bike park.

WHEN – Friday January 18, 2013: 7pm Screening of “WHERE THE TRAIL ENDS”, Q&A with Darren Berrecloth
Saturday January 19, 2013: 10:00am – Ride with Specialized Athletes; 3:00pm – Autographs
Sunday January 20, 2013: 10:00am – Ride with Specialized Athletes; 3:00pm – Bike Giveaway

WHERE – JoyRide 150 Indoor Bike Park, 150 Bullock Drive, Markham, ON  L3P 1W2

COST – Day Pass – Weekend (Sat-Sun) $28; 2-Day Weekend Pass (Sat+Sun) $44

*There is a one-time-only $5 start-up fee the first time you register at Joyride150 – this covers the cost of the waiver, processing, photo, and club card (which never expires!)…
