Hello I just ordered a pair of Gio dirt bikes (250 & 125) and looking forward to receiving them and getting them togeter...I live in Ontario though and there is a least a foot of snow on the ground...

Welcome to the forum.
Where in Ontario are you?
Don't let the snow stop you.
My Gio likes it just fine :P

Thats because the Chinese bikes are inexpensive, and Canadians are notoriously cheap :P

Thanks for the welcome

I live in Bancroft. I have been here not quite a year. Prior to Bancroft I was in Cochrane for a couple years (great sledding in Cochrane) and prior to Cochrane I was in the Brockville / Kingston area.

The trails in the Bancroft area are fairly good and I thought the pair of bikes would be a great Xmas present for my son and I. Although it's been a few years since I have ridden...

The pictures of running the bike in the snow look great...

I will take pictures and provide (to anyone interested) a play by play of the assembly and tuning...

By the way this site is great and hats off to the people doing the hard work...

Two awesome places.
The wife and I vacationed in the Timmins/Cochrane area for 10yrs, and for the last 6yrs have been visiting Bancroft to run in the Maple leaf rallycross series, and watch the rally of the tall pines.
The trails up there are excellent.
Keep us posted on your progress!
