Spent a lazy couple of hours on the this afternoon before the thunderstorms rolled in.

8 inches/20cm of heavy wet snow has blown in 3 days after the ski mountain closed for the year. The drifts were well over a foot deep in some places and I had do a bit of “fatbike cyclocross” to get to town.

I stopped to visit with my brother at the volunteer fire station today and discovered they have bike rack with tools (including an actual JIS #2 screwdriver!) available all year long.

Another Fat bike ride!
I rigged up the phone w/“action" mode to record video and it comes out pretty stable, but would probably be better in landscape (not possible with this mount). Trails were mostly frozen dirt, but still some "ice highways" scattered around waiting to test your studs and skills. That being said, we have hot weather in forecast, I'm guessing last fat bike ride unless there's a surprise Winter storm or two.

Out for another ride, warmer but not so much as to melt the ice.

Vendredi dernier, j'ai fait mon quatrième jour de de la semaine.

Pour un mois de février, j'en suis assez fier!

Avec la petite neige tombée pendant la nuit, j'ai choisi le .

Ça m'a permis de passer par le petit parc, dont la piste cyclable est damée pendant l'hiver. Après un épisode de redoux puis de froid (-16°C), la piste est trop cahoteuse pour les pneus de mon vélo de .

The freezing fog has put a layer of ice on everything this morning, but there is almost no wind so I’m calling it a lucky day.

A storm blew in from the north just in time for the ride home. The fat bike was made for this. It rolled through the snow drifts like a hot knife through butter. But I experienced a new obstacle: tall grass got wrapped around the little gears and froze and I couldn’t shift past 5th until I cleaned the cogs 🤣

From YT recommendations, the recent fat bike fest up at Stowe. A handful of crashes into the fluff.

Fat biking trails were ... scrawny. A LOT of work keeping tires in the skinny, bumpy lines. Hard earned miles!

A view before I broke trail with my fat bike. Lot of energy and control to stay on.
Payoff, we made it up to top of hill for view of the valley

In 2018 this guy stomped and snow-blowered a 75-metre-long homage to fatbiking in the snow on the frozen Red River in Winnipeg:

Snowshoe packing the fat bike trails this morning with a friend. Pretty powdery snow so it doesn’t take a fast pack, going to require more traffic. So one of my goals is to set the lines such that anyone who comes out just for snowshoeing will tend to go the same way. People who snowshoe don't know the lines and they will often do sharp turns around a bough heavy in snow rather than just shake the snow off and keep a straight line.

One of the trails after a first pass of snowshoeing by two of us.

Hey, I went fat biking!

Rode down the (normally) dirt road by our house and a couple other side streets. Nothing’s been plowed for hours and it’s deep enough you could find yourself going sideways if you aren't careful. Got the heart rate up quite nicely. Hardly anyone out: one snowplow service, one guy snow blowing, one gal clearing long driveway with old tractor. Quick yardstick check shows 9-10” on front lawn.

It’s beginning to look a teeny tiny bit like Xmas.

Take a kid fat biking!

Pre-teen days, when you could get a decent ride out of him with only a small bag of gummy worms.

In amongst the expanse of pinewoods where I , there's a rogue coppice of Silver Birch that has a near luminescent quality. I love riding through it.

If you go down to the woods today …
Passed by the dirt jumps while out for a ride earlier on, so hung about for a while to watch the kids do their thing.
