snow tomorrow

[Steve Vai]

Snow is deep and wind is really up there at the moment, perfect conditions to test out gear. I may even set up my bivy and sleep somewhere for a few hours...

+35mph winds here, legitimate blizzard conditions for once

trying to convince the squad to still roll out at 10...lol

I'm not going out today but planning to hit the park roads near high point tomorrow around noon. Start at the bottom of Sawmill and do the loop around Ridge road. Hopefully the snowmobiles will have the place packed down by then. PM if anyone is interested in meeting up.

Come by anytime Paul, actually did realize we're running low on vino till now, at least 3 cases short, gotta make a run to trader joes and Costco after this storm blows over, still have a case of sake and soju in there so not terribly worried

Went out last night, towards the end the wind was picking up and six inches of heavy snow was down.... And I was alone. Rode sidewalk as much as I could as the road was a death sentence if a car slid. Little to no traffic, but I saw the weather at 8:30pm after I prepped the house and realized it was now or never. 9pm to 1am

i started measuring the fatboy to find the right size frame bag. gonna lose some overall volume in the frame but itl probably motivate me to shed excess crap i dont need. on the flipside i can run a bigger seatbag and jerry can

really dont want to do something stupid like clean

 

[Jonnyrl1]

got my miles in today, so much fun!

Finally got a chance to ride the fat bike. Pretty much impossible where there was snow that wasn't plowed or packed down.

Morristown is full on Snowpocalypse. Hardly anyone out, can ride anywhere in the streets. Ran into a bunch of fat bikers on the green. Hung out at the Running Company for a bit as they are always open and used the warmth, headed over to Marty's for their 1pm fat bike ride. Me and one other guy showed up, nobody from Marty's. Lame.
