22 NE - Just get out and ride
We don't need no kitschy titles. We just need to ride.

At the moment - it's just get out and "slide" for us.

Not too bad here in south central western Mass right now. Firm and fast with some ice fur sure. I’m not tire doping and haven’t had too many issues.

0 for 2 on thread titles, man. At least try and put a little effort into it.

hey y'all! Know there are some fine gravel fanatics on this thread so wanted to plug for a friend of mine who's been working on gravel infrastructure in rural Colorado and is wanting to expand some of their programming and offering (namely gravel travel guidebooks) to the Northeast.
Article here: https://www.velonews.com/news/gravel...e-field-guide/
If you know folks in the tourism offices you've worked with for gravel races or rides, or know who Juan should talk to about that, LMK! Send me a PM. Thanks for your help."We're in the eye of a shiticane here Julian, and Ricky's a low shit system!" - Jim Lahey, RIP

Change is coming for sure, the big question is does it stay or turn really warm like the forecasts are showing for next week.
I think that after 10 years of titling the thread I have a mental block. I mean, the old brain, it don't funkshun like it used to ya know *shrug*

Ride during the storm, then we'll be grooming, then the walkers will post hole our groom. Then we melt and more post holing.

We slogged along 4.5 miles last night. We had snowshoed and Hok ski groomed much of it. The untouched actually rode better, but was more work.

We have ride anywhere conditions. It hasn't been like this in years. Bulletproof snow...including my driveway . Skinned some pow laps yesterday, so gonna ride today as it looks like these conditions will be ending tomorrow.

Today was the best winter snow conditions I've ever ridden. Rode 2.8 studded and didn't sink anywhere. Even small jump supported landings. Stupid fast, ride anywhere, and the punchy tech stuff was like riding over a garden hose. Good gawd! So fun!

So fleeting, but those conditions are so fun. We get that like once every 5 years or so.

Velcro conditions replaced with luge runs

Ya, luge covered in an inch or two was interesting. Fat studs > skinny studs zero

2” makes for fun riding, fortunately not too much ice underneath.

Didn't look at my tire until now. I guess I f'd up big by not having time to "set" my studs before riding.

New bike day. Better late than never.
The color is horrendous, but I like the weight, 27.5 tires, and 66 HT.

Dirt, and only a few muddy spots in MA.
