Short but amazing ride today in the fluffy white stuff. Perfect conditions with a light powder layer on solid pack.
Then there was this guy, Karen of the day.... Just had to stop me and tell me how I'm ruining the ice crystals on the trail. On the multi use shared trail.... How disrespectful I was to be riding on a shared use trail. I don't know what it is this year but I get harassed by a skier EVERY week I ride. Last week it bas a British twit showing me a wilderness posting that says no bikes allowed, when I was riding a multi use forest trail at least trail 2 miles from the wilderness....

enjoyed some beautiful wi yet weather today too! -10C with very little wind and bright sun. the kind of day you just gotta get outside! did a 12km loop. i haven’t ridden much this winter. dec and jan were uncanny busy at work and then we had two weeks of -50 wind chill. now that the weather has flipped i want to put some miles on this bike!! there some new fat bike trails not far from me i’ll have to go check out. i’ll yell at the skiers for you @on the rocks if i see any on the trails!! 
My daily rides have changed and will stay this way for the next 4-6 weeks. 
At least my legs work.

LOL, all good, I don't mind sharing the trail, I don't even mind if someone has an educated opinion to stop me to tell me about what I'm doing wrong. Just don't get the hate for the bikes in the winter. This a****** started the conversation with asking me if I ride in the summer, I knew where he was going and I immediately answered "yes, and I will continue to ride through the winter too" He still tried to advise I stick to the summer riding. By then the only logical thing to do was to tell him to F*^k off and ride away.i’ll yell at the skiers for you @on the rocks if i see any on the trails!!
I actually like the skiiers, they help pack the trail. I'm just not going to dodge their pristine ice crystal tracks to destroy the rest of the unpacked trail.
Next up is snowmobile trails, I can only imagine the hate I will get there too lol...
Nice to see your sticking with it. Don't let one setback kill your love for riding... Going down is all part of the experience lol. No battle scare, your not pushing hard enough!My daily rides have changed and will stay this way for the next 4-6 weeks.

Truth, homie. I’m super positive. Have a good support system is super important as well. I have a 2 week bike packing trip coming up in April. Gotta keep on track. 
i bike ski and snowmobile so i get every angle of it. i actually think it’s awesome when bikes ride snowmobile trails. that’s what i mainly do when i get the chance. i’m normally off in the tullies looking for deep snow on my sled anyway so they’re never in my way.

Nevermind -- just read back a little. I'm glad you're not dead. Was the hillside ok? I mean, you smacked it pretty hard with that hardhat

I'll be back to hammer that mountain.... soon.
Working from the camper at a campground about an hour out from home for a few days. Went for a ride on the fatty ON the lake and kept going down a few trails.
Best investment riding is a good helmet! Glad the helmet took the brunt of the punishment and you are ok. Kudos to Bell too
Bell helmets are pretty affordable too. My moto helmet runs about 8-10 x more!

Ride and “hike a tandem” today. I don’t advise hiking with a steel tandem. Hahaha
LOL, NICE custom sticker! Makes me want to get a "skate skiers suck balls!"

For some reason my wife was NOT surprised I managed to find the oldest bar in Nevada out riding yesterday...
i gotta get out riding again soon. for some reason this winter has been depressing and i haven’t felt like being outside. now that the sun is back i’m getting ready to get out there!!
my tickets for vegas desert riding are booked so i’m stoked to try some new terrain this spring!
