It's been pretty stormy here over the last few days, after checking the weather, I found a "window" of time between storm systems! I called my friend Kelly and we went on a ride, he's a serious MTB'er so when he had a "short cut", I should have know it would have some "off road"! LOL, what he considers a very mild trail is what I consider a normal MTB trail, this one has a bit of ice and snow but myself and the "Frankenbrid" survived nicely so I know it hasn't totally forgotten it's MTB roots! We wandered on over and checked out a bike shop, then did some "sidewalk surf'in" to get back to the paved trail.

A nice couple of hrs.+, even though Kelly got a flat, still if felt good to get on the bike in the sunshine and it was nice to chat with him as I mostly ride "alone" on the weekdays so that was a treat. Well we headed back being chased by "dark clouds", after I got home, put the bike up, it started lightly snowing, so the timing was perfect!
