Sunday, October 28th

Hilton Falls Conservation Area (Milton) is proud to present 8th annual Spooks 'N Spokes MTB Time Trial this Sunday, October 28th. All proceeds from this race will go towards the maintenance of the 33km of trail in the park. There is a nice 5km loop for the youngsters and 14km loop for the oldsters. For more experienced riders you can ride 2 laps of the circuit.

The singletrack is in really good shape with all the dry weather. Hopefully will last into the weekend. The event goes rain or shine. There are prizes for the fastest racers and lots of draw prizes for everyone thanks to event sponsor Spokes 'N Slopes of Milton. It's lots of fun. Cost is $20 for under 14 years, and $25 for over 14 years and no race licence is required. The park is closed to the non-racing public during the race, but spectators are more than welcome and there is no entry fee for them so pack up the whole family and bring them along. For a registration form go to www.conservationhalton.on.ca or call Hilton Falls at 905-854-0262 from 8:30am to 4:30pm every day.
