Riding snow is among the most fun you can have
on a bike. It is so relaxing but interesting at
the same time, just pure joy.

You don't have to have super fat tires, as in
a fat bike, altho that's nice as well, no, an
ordinary MTB will do.

Only shifting must work to perfection because
otherwise muscling your way thru it will
destroy everything in an instant.


Same in mud. Yesterday I stalled out half a dozen times because I forgot
to shift in time. Distracted by horses and all that. Some of them seemed
to have as much fun and looked the part.
