Great to see them both out there with you.

We (North Bay SC) have over 150 Free Trail Passes issued already.

I did about 125 kms today and lots of traffic.

IMHO, I don't think handing out Free Trail Passes on the busiest weekend of the year is that smart.

If you were running a restaurant and if you knew you were going to be full and have trouble giving the usual good service, would you then invite more people to come for free on the same weekend. NO.

Too many sleds = Torn up trails which causes the paying permit riders to be angry and the freebies aren't impressed either because of the high volumes and poor trails.

Another weekend, maybe, but certainly not Family Day Long Weekend.

agree about timing of free pass...& freebies probably complaining about beat up trails...is it worth putting out free pass (especially 3 days) when trails get so pounded...how much time & $ to repair damage done...or does this happen every wk-end...i don't usually ride on wk-ends...
