Here she be... first ride in the snow for both of us tonight. Riding in the snow is a whole other animal! I'm surprised we both stayed upright!

Thanks! They took a few long minutes, but they were actually quite easy to install. I'm a perfectionist so I tend to spend a little longer on things than any sane person would.

Recorded this a couple of weeks ago on Dec 30th... this is the Flume trail in Fraser, Colorado. One of our more fun summer singletrack trails, and has turned into a fantastic fat bike singletrack for the winter, too.

This is my new winter bike preview. Put a 9ZERO7 on layaway a few months ago. Probably will ride it all summer and plan to have studs on it before the snow flies next winter.

My newest winter ride, a 2016 Giant ATX 27.5. At the pier in Port Dover on Lake Erie.

This 1987 Trek 8000 has been getting me to work everyday this winter:
Love the bar mitts for blocking the wind and allowing me to use lighter weight gloves than in years past. Aluminum frame, Marathon winters front and rear, Shimano Deore components, front basket for stashing extra layers. It's heavy and sort of beat up, but I don't have to worry about it. Simple and tough.

Not so Rusty, equally as trustworthy.

A young fellow, new employee, has a Trustier Rustier, I should take a photo of it.
Maybe it is just the perspective but it looks like the downtube has a bit of a curve to it.

Perspective on the downtube, definitely curved top tube cause I've used it (the top tube) as a seat whenever I'm out & about for the last 10 years or so.

Here's my Raleigh International (recently built up) during -- yes during -- the big snowfall we had on January 23.
