also took a pic from the same day I dumped my bike, cuz my aggressive studded tires filled with packed fresh snow lifting the bike off the studs, losing traction


nice vid! keep 'em comin'!

found it, lol, never saw it coming
I had quite a few ice traps that I got thru enough before the back wheel starting breaking thru, but this one didn't play nice. I would have stayed up but as I put my foot down it slid out from me on the ice. I think I have the lights set close enough to make it look like one beam.
