First snow ride of the season.

Had a blast playing in the woods after our first snow fall of the season yesterday. I got soaked from all the low hanging branches covered in snow, but it was to much fun to stop. I ran across five hunters while out on my 2 1/2 hour adventure. I am so looking forward to some real winter riding in the near future.

68 to Wachuetts St stayed on Brooks Station Rd to Mountain Rd up to the top of Wachuetts then back the same way. For some reason I did not want to take Bolton and make it a loop.
