Arizona has nothing on Mn riding


Cyclocross season is over, but bike season is not.  The Pugsley is a blast, in years past I've ridden 2" mountain bike tires on the snow covered trails.  The 2" tires on snow are a struggle not only because snow ridding requires a ton of effort, but it also requires a great deal of balance and finesse to keep moving forward with momentum. The 3.8" Larry's still require a bunch of force, but it's easier to keep balance and momentum.


The trails were in excellent shape prior to the 16 or so inches we just got.  The bike trail (road) from 101 was plowed with a truck up to 169 and then where the trail gets skinny someone had used a snowblower to keep it open to bike commuting.  It's going to be awhile before this is open again.
