Well, count your blessings...
Since Christmas our ground just gets steadily whiter and deeper....
I would love to get out -- but the tires on my bike are more than half worn, and they didn't have that much tread on them to begin with. So, I am a little leery to see what they will do in the snow.
I am running 700x38 (which is the widest that will fit my fenders). I would like to find a nice "snow tire" in 700x35 or so but so far haven't had much luck. I stopped by my LBS yesterday but they were not able to suggest anything...
... I sure hope I don't have to wait till spring. The tires I have will be fine once it dries out, but right now it's just too sloppy and too slippery for them.
