Snow Ride, Take It Easy....

Out in Hartmann....
The weatherman says it's 13F. So does the 'puter. Oh well....

Gunk hanging from the bike....

Sweet....

I was reading some blogs this morning and decided to mount up the studs and take the Surly out for a ride. It's ice underneath about 3 or so inches of snow, so it worked out fairly well. I headed to the gravel road that runs through the Hartmann North Unit and saw that someone had been out on xc skis already. Good for you, whoever you are!

It was pretty rough going through there because the boot prints from the people who have been walking out in the woods have frozen pretty solid so I rolled up Lookout Park Hill when I came to the end of the road through Hartmann. I can't say that I went up fast, but I was able to ride the entire hill. It' a bitch today, to say the least.

Then it was down Grand and into Cedar Falls. Interesting ride, for sure. My computer said it was 11F outside when I left but the thermometer at the Chamber of Commerce building in CF said 23 F. Hmmmm..... The weatherman on the tube and my computer both say it's now 13 F outside. It feels like 13 F outside. Whatever. The high today is supposed to be 19F. It's all good! Maybe 23C is 11F? I'm sure that someone can do the calculation for me.... (actually, I know it's not. LOL)

I think it's time to take a shower then go to lunch. After that it looks like there will be a bit more shoveling out in the driveway. Perhaps I'll go get my hunting license this afternoon and go deer hunting in the morning. The weather is perfect for it!

Ride safe.

Peace out, yo!
