I didn’t want you all to think I gave up biking for brewing, so I snapped a few pics on the commute today. My thumb is still bothering me from a few months ago, so mountain biking is being held to less than 2 hours.
Just starting out, riding along Rt.62, heading under Rt.3.
The snow started falling a little after 2:00 PM and being that most people didn’t come in to work today, I took the opportunity to head out at 3:20 PM. It’s always a good time riding in the snow when it’s coming down at a couple inches an hour.
Just riding along...
So the snow started at 2:00 PM on Friday and finally ended sometime Saturday night. Woke up this morning and we’re enjoying another storm with some white out conditions. They’re saying to expect another 6″ on top of the foot or so we already received. Guess we won’t be seeing the green grass again until Spring.
Just have to wait until the PR gets good and packed down to do some kick ass snow rides! I think we should get a set of snowshoes so we can help out with the packing, ha.

Nice pics! How many yards is your commute?
Ha, really depends…if there’s a buttload of snow and I take the most direct route, it’s a little over 3 miles each way. BUT I rarely take the most direct route, whether that means taking the trails around the reservoir or taking the hilly route to bring some warmth into the routine. Yea, it’s no 20 mile commute each direction, up hill both ways, in 3 feet of snow, but hey, that’s why I ride into the city for drinks, ha.
Nice foto’s DT. Thats how the first part of my ride looked sorta this morning at Gambrill. I need a new camera!
