Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Funny what 25 inches of snow in a week does to your saddle time.


Next door neighbors cabin

Running out of space to put the snow.

They are in the basement. Finding my CC shoes might be a bigger problem though. I should add all our snow was gone 10 days ago. Had my new mountain bike together and ready start riding outside and now snow again. Duluth had 20 foot drifts out acrossed the lift bridge on Park Point.

Thats what MTB's are for. Fit the thin mud tyres and don't eat the yellow snow.
