lots of nice places to ride on the west coast I know that much. I think its soon time for a NL Trikefest! :lol:

harryredtrike, that is the gypsum making everything white, but the snow is coming again soon.

[Bryan Raffa]

thanks for shareing.. is that gypsum on the ground or snow?

[Tecate250]

Lol. Looks like a gypsum mine In nova Scotia. The white is the rock. Thats what dry wall is made from. There are a number of nl on here. Should try to get a ride going.

[MudBug]

as promised I have more pics. This is the half of the mine where everyone rides. The other half is all like the first pics. Was nice out today so decided to get some more.:)

That place is beautiful.... I would love to take a slow ride and enjoy the scenery there.

[RudeDog666]

Looks like a great place to ride. I'm betting you had a great time!

nothing nicer than driving your bikes right from your house to a place like this. Theres still more that I havent showed you guys yet. Thanks for looking :D

[MonroeMike]

That place is huge.

Hope those poisonous gases are gone.

[300rman]

man, im surprised your allowed anywhere near there. first few times someone is airlifted out, it will come to an end, so tell everyone to be careful!

[MudBug]

hahahahaha yeah about the poisonous gases, they are anywhere near somone is drilling for oil. the poisonous gas is now contained, but if it starts leaking out of the pipes etc, if you are close enough its almost certain death. this place is barred off besides quad trails, and we never usually go near the old oil well, I just went to get pics and wasnt thinking straight.

[The Goat]

awesome looking scenery bud, loving that big lake!





PS

....there are dozens of abandoned oil wells behind the house.... You won't die by going near them. the put those cages around there to help stop people from riding the pump arms while intoxicated lol

[Tecate250]

Sweet. Looks like there is alot of traffic too.

[MudBug]

sarcasm? :wondering hahah in the summer this place is ripped up by us on dirtbikes. every summer we have to redo the jumps also
