Well, they aren't very good for cycling. It's cold, the roads are icy,
the snow is deep and I can barely ride my townie on the streets. But I got out to my usual trails and had a good time anyway. On Sunday it warmed up to -7 by about 11:00 am so I decided to get out for a little fun on the trails. Lots of frost on things: http://tinyurl.com/2p2skw/IMG_4800.jpg I like the contrast between rocks and snow. http://tinyurl.com/2p2skw/IMG_4839.jpg Quite a few critter tracks. http://tinyurl.com/2p2skw/IMG_4854.jpg Rock on! (I just happened to notice this shadow while I was stopped for a snack) http://tinyurl.com/2p2skw/IMG_4857.jpg Matt |

I was cold Saturday hiking at 37F to do trail work on the BCT and the river crossing was a lot nicer on the ass end of a horse in the morning than it was wading across in the afternoon......and as I was putting my shoes on the horses showed up. BCT is now connected from Highway 74 North to Black Canyon City, Woo HOOOOOO. Oops, got distracted. Nice track in the last picture. Amazing how the rear wheel tracked precisely behind the front wheel. What kind of handlebars are you running to get such an odd shadow in the next to last photo? Gary (who will take?) |

Black Diamond dual adjustable vertical bars. I prefer longer for climbing and flats and shorter for descents. Matt |

Matt- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Cold is cool,its the melt down and then freeze over at night. The snow and ice is still around after week. So I leave the scooter parked and I ride my bike and look at it this way its a workout. So put that remote down and get off that sofa and ride. One I can't stand a seasonal ride. Like the school teacher next store chill comes along bike rack comes off the car and bike gos in storage. |
