doubtful...

"OMG! Yao Ming is riding a Gunnar. That must mean Gunnars are good bikes right? Mommy! I want one!"

8" of snow =

Wrong! To quote you, it's all in your head. Go snowshoeing, XC skiing, sledding, whatever. Just go out and enjoy it.

Or find a decent descent...8" will be no problem with some momentum.

Actually I did have some fun with the snow.



Had another crap load of snow since then.

Kind of a shame though was dodging big accumulations of snow for the whole season until today.

Nice! Looks very mild, too. To get a good snowman like that you need sticky snow and you only get sticky snow if it's mild. "Mild" is obviously a relative term but to me that looks like a relatively warm day.

Man, I do enjoy not having to shovel snow anymore... My shoulder is actually starting to not hurt as much as it used to.

Ha, looks like the steerer is longer than the stanchions/blades/whatever you want to call them.

We finally got some snow and ice here this winter. Broke out the 294's yesterday and had a blast.

looking forward to going for a long ride sunday with them.

For all you guys with bad weather right now,here's some hope. I just took these in my backyard.......

spring is springin'

'66, how long did your snow last?

Our biggest snow lasted about a week. It's gonna be about 65 today. Hambone and I are going out for a ride in an hour or so.

It supposed to be 68 today! 62 right now, Hoping to get out to thomson today.

We have a beautiful, sunny and mild day here. It's -5C. I think that's like -235235092 Fahrenheit.

I took my daughters to their skating lessons this morning and we'll be going out for a family skate on an outdoor rink this afternoon. Tomorrow we're planning on going snowshoeing.

We got whacked with snow yesterday. Only the third (I think) storm this year. It dropped enough on my area, though. I was starting to taste spring. So much for that.

I went riding, today, and snapped the bolt that holds my saddle to the seat post.
THAT FREAKING HURT!
I had to finish the 5 mile loop standing up, holding on to a seat!

Why would Specialized design the Hardrock so the cables are on the bottom of the downtube so they get gunked up everytime I ride?

WHY, SPECIALIZED, WHY?

Thats the only downside to that Bike, Other than that I think it's rather decent

On Thursday, it hit +16C in my part of the city. It hit 6C today and it's supposed to snow tomorrow...gotta love Calgary weather!

You guys with those crazy Chinooks. I don't know how you deal with the yo-yo weather. I can't stand when it goes above zero here and luckily it only happens about once per month.

We were in Winnipeg last weekend - over the long weekend. Left Winnipeg early Tuesday morning and it was -45 with the windchill...got to Calgary and I worked from home during the day. Had the patio doors open, enjoyed the sunny 9C weather...I can definitely handle that. Too bad I've been too busy with work to get out and enjoy the weather.

I went into the bike shop yesterday with hambone and girlscout. I looked around for a while,looked at some new bikes and I didn't see anything that tempted me at all. I saw a couple of bikes I would like to have but nothing I would trade my bike for. It's a pretty good place for my wallet to be in. I do need a few odds and ends, new cables, new cleats, and that sort of things but thats about it.I just cleaned up my bike and it's not too shabby.I'm still lusting over WheelieMert's Transition.I could see that as my next ride, but it'll be a while..........nice.

I saw a pic of WheelieMert, riding a hardtail I thought. What Transition is he riding?
