Skijoring at Arrowhead for 2011


For those of you who know us at The Bike Shop in Gravenhurst, there's another passion besides the bicycle. Skijoring is a great way to get out and enjoy winter with your pet. What is skijoring? A sport in which a cross-country skier is attached by harnesses to one or more dogs. The sport is growing in intrest. We plan to make it larger as we scheduled 4 days of skijoring for Arrowhead Provincial Park in Huntsville. January 16th, February 6th, March 13th, and April 3rd. Times are from 10am to 3pm. For those with or without dogs are welcome to come out and join in the fun at Arrowhead. If you don't have the equipment we'll have gear to borrow. Instruction is available to teach you and your dog the best way to start skijoring.

the Pugsleys are Here!

It was but a week ago when I arrived to the store to find a lonely Donnie leaning against the bike bar with a long face. All it took to put a smile on that face was a FAT bike. A Surly Pugsley. Pretty neat, a bike that will conquer anything, snow, sand, moss, and a long faced fella.
Come in check out the new winter biking phenomenon that is the Surly Pugsley. I have one left in stock with more to follow.
