Well plans did not go as planned today. My wife is currently stuck in Wyoming and the highways were closed all day (Just recently opened)! She has drifts 4+ feet deep on 3 sides of her Discovery and a fence on the 4th. So after watching reports, conditions, and such around 3:30 we decided it was going to be tomorrow before she was going to be able to come back home. Well I had already been home all day on the net/phone and had to get out! I took the old 1994 Pro Flex 754 for it's first run since I got it. I have done a few items on it for repair and figured today was a great day for a shake down run. Went from my apt. to Glendale Open space and back. While the total mileage is not impressive the snow made for a good work out. All of the hikers prints made the first uphill more of a hike a bike but I still had a blast!

Well I was out longer than I thought ( along with starting later then I realized) it got dark on me. Glad I always carry my camping headlight just in case.

Don't have pics from when it was dark, but the last bit was fun. I had a dog sprint across a parking lot after the owner took off the leash for him to get in the car.. Yeah that was scary. Got a couple garage shots after the ride
