Icy Fun !
The temps were well above normal and the winter gear was left behind. Went out for a little over 2 1/2 hours playing on some icy trails. The deep grooves just added to the fun, you can't get this kind of fun on an indoor trainer.

I don't get it, what makes the bike go down at that 5:36 mark?
looks like a real race track. maybe it softened up just enough to be trouble? get those trails back down below freezing & it may be perfect again
so interesting how you are approx 10 degrees cooler out west. & a good snow pack like that stubbornly sticks a round a long time. wrong word cuz that's way better than mud, right?
here, Saturday was in the low 60s (Carver/Plymouth)

I love the camera angles, especially the one between the tire and the fender! You are fortunate to have such beautiful trails to ride!

Thanks ! I do like that back view but need to rig it a little higher to get a better view of the trail. It's great to have all this right in my backyard indeed.
