Big Day at Is. Lk. and Milford at 12 degrees
3 hours and nearly 25 miles and very cold... perfection with 5/6 PSI on the the new Surly Lou and Bud tires. Island Lake with lite snow and about 70% ice was still fine without studs and low PSI - really fun and I wanted more... so off to Milford for 2 more loops which were even better with frozen dirt = slickrock. Great grip and really pretty fast. Loved this 5 mile single track - its small but has good flow and lots os tech sections and up and downs. Must do this combo again soon.

Mabury Iceman Muddth
Cold and muddy Monday ride at Maybury. Probably the longest ride in the shortest distance very icy and snowy 80% coverage on the single track at Maybury. Very few people out 40° temperatures and hopefully the last time out on the snowshoe tires. Still a very enjoyable hour plus on the trails not enough time to do a second loop. Love the winter riding even when it's treacherous ice and a little bit of mud. Finish right off by going to the car wash to spray the bike down.

Back and right over to Tree Farm
Great 10 miles while slow on 30% snow / 30% ice / 30% dry / 10% mud. Sunny late afternoon and 40 degrees with hot hands in the moose mitts. More goodness tomorrow before the rain. With tires at 8/9 PSI perfection in rolling and grip.

Another perfect day on Mtn.
Sunny and 30 all day. First lift up and lines not too bad all day. Another perfect and last day skiing. Killer trip and awesome conditions all week. Again Ski Tracks only got half the day but we probably had another 25k vertical. Highlight Avery's huge jumps in Ute Park. Too much fun.

Strava Sucks. River Bends with 6" did not
Cold 16 degrees and powder day with groomer and 6" new pow. 2 slow but fun Loops at a ridiculously low 4/4.5 PSI. Very tight packed line and i kept dropping the tire air and that kept me upright. Classic snow biking for 2 hours and a real workout. RB is place to be for the corduroy!

2 for Saturday before the snow.
2 great rides this morning in the 20's. Hick Glen first up and first time there are n 3 years almost. Remembered the whole thing even with a half inch of snow and a little ice. No a lot of hills but a good warm up for Tree Farm. Novi was fun too and loads of FatBoys out. Dropped tires to 8/10.5 and that proved to be sweet spot. Great ride and perfection in cool riding temps. New ski shorts were perfect addition to staying warm. Now on to the snow.

Great 15 mile late Sunday in cold temps and near rain. Good mostly dry single track and very few riders out. 1:30 lap with extra yellow loop good fun, let's do it again next time with some snow!
