well there was some ICE on our driveway today , and My son wanted to try out his new Home made studded tires, So on the tires went and they worked great on the ice. Then we decided to get a little more adventurous . figured we go and try to ride some trails . Well it was marginal we went in a couple hundred yards and came back. him at 60 pounds was actually having an easier time than I was , he was so light he wasn't breaking through the crusty snow layer as often as I was ( there is still 6+ inches on the ground ) . I really think if we didn't get that snow a couple days ago and it stayed rain it would be ridable right now .

any way here is my Boy.

and here is one of me

except he'd probably get points off for the rip in the knee!

What bike is Pete riding now? Looks like he's got suspension up front now.

Its a trek 850 , it is still a little large for him , but the tstudded tires are 26 inch so those won't fit on his other bike, and yup he has suspention on it a rock Shox Jett XC XL .

Nice to see you riding with your kid. How long did it take you to make those tires.
