snowride update

not everyone showed up (I almost didn't, Thanks Norm!). Norm and I met up with the Chinook Cycling Club at state patrol to try our tires in the snow. Last night the tri-cities recieved about 4 inches of fresh snow, which made not only riding tough, but getting also there. We only rode up most of Big Tire, then cut off to the road and went most of the way up the hill. On the way back down Norm and I decided that we'd rather take a trail back than the road. Lesson learned: going down snowy trails is _way_ more fun than going up them. Take the road up, the trail down.

Those shoes I mentioned earlier worked out great- my toes were quite toasty!

At anyrate, it was a bunch o' fun. I'd do it again.
