Rolling the Dirt and Whatever Else I See Fit!!

After winter and fall.... Spring has to be my favorite time to "bomb" the "Fat Tires" pretty much over whatever, and wherever I choose!!
Nothing is overgrown, everything is still knocked down and begging to be pedaled over.

Today was 61 with glorious sunshine, a slight north wind..... Pretty much perfect!!!! 
Gravel roads, wheeler trails, woods with no trail, old railroad grades, in use railroad tracks; were pedaled on with that all familiar smile across my face, all thanks to my trusty Pugs!!! 

One week left to sign up for the National Bike Challenge!! What may I ask...... are you waiting for??
Ha Ha

Peace

Limitations.......

You have to love northern Mn. In April!!!!!
Forecast called for 2-5" of snow over night. 
Well, I let the shit-machine out at 4:15 a.m.and there was a good 10-12" of HEAVY WET snow on the ground!!! 
After I dug Mojo's chain out of the snow, I shoveled the porch off, and knew it'd be an interesting ride into work!! 
Air pressure was let out before I left, and again after a 1/2 a block. By the time I got to work I was pretty much riding on my rims........ 2.5 up front and 3.5 in back..... It made no difference, I think I pushed over 1/2 way in!!!! 
Very limited vehicle tracks to poach at 4 in the morning!!  
Anyway, it was all good, and I sure was awake faster than normal!! Ha Ha

Peace
