Got back from up North and hit SHP. Dig the daylight savings! Where it was groomed was great. Where it wasn't, it wasn't.
Made it halfway across this bridge

Uggh, snowing again. Just as the local trails were starting to melt off to a rideable condition. I guess the fatty stays ready for a while longer.
Sorry for the crappy quality postage stamp pic. This was yesterday in the Catskills.

The snow is missing us up here, which I'm secretly happy about. I'm going to do some NEK fatty biking Saturday assuming the trails have firmed up enough.

^^Did you get it serviced locally? Just curious. I had my Pike and Monarch serviced by Bike Express a couple weeks ago. Tech was a helpful, seemed like he knew what he was doing but I'll find out once the tires hit the dirt.

Are you guys being proactive and servicing before failure...like a logical person would do? Maybe I should do that

I had mine done by Cane Creek, spendy but they have the upgrade kits and I would rather have mine done by someone whose speciality is shocks rather than a jack of all trades.
On the other hand I am servicing my Pike by watching the factory service video on youtube.
JS, mine blew something internally in late November, ridable with more air and avoiding big hits. Honestly was going to have it serviced this winter even if it didn't need it.www.apriliaforum.com

As far as I know, only Cane Creek service centers can service their stuff, doesn't seem like you can buy anything past seal kits on their site.
Hank, you'll hopefully be surprised by the difference. Its kinda disgusting the color and gritty consistency of the oil that comes out if its not seen some love in awhile.

Daylight savings is the best, finally took a cleanup ride with the boy. Pretty amazing how much fell in the last few weeks. We were quite devastated to see about 1/4 of our backyard trail system had been logged. All the branches are tilled up into the dirt. Once we clear the brush I think the trails could be much better due to the available dirt but it's going to be work. As if that wasnt enough another whole trail had been postholed by horses while super soft. Kinda bummed on the whole situation.

Sorry about the ribs, did that last winter. Craziest feeling when they move and feel like they're on fire. Heal quick.

Kingdom Trails was real nice Saturday AM. Groomed norrow(ish) singletrack was a welcome relief from the usual trails I’ve been riding this winter. A few felt like a snowy pump track.
That place is great when it’s not packed with people and conditions line up.

Heading to Nashua this weekend.....any chance trails are rideable down there? My bet is a “no.”

Damn, I figured I'd be SOL. Cape is just too far to drive. Oh well, I'll just keep watching the snow melt.
