edit:
rainy and cold...blah. gonna pick up some cranks from a buddy in a little while. losing to the kids at chess atm. i haz no strategeries.
Rode, did a bit of ice riding on the lakes but did not feel confident about the ice thickness. Too bad a crappy storm kills it tomorrow.
Chasing a storm yesterday was The Right Answer™ and was only made mo'bettah by a camp out in the van at 11,000 Freedoms. Waking up to 13º Freedom was a bit chilly, but coffee and hot oatmeal helped. Couple of good shots from yesterday's adventure...

15 degrees for my run this morning...cold but tolerable. Thankfully no wind. 15 miles at 7:21 pace...faster than it felt.
Rode the bike again but holy f*** were the trails crowded. At the local DH/slopestyle spot a full session was ongoing, including a cable cam, multiple guys filming and 25-ish riders hitting the jumps, sometimes in trains of 5+. How that was not against the rules is beyond me. Did ride the smaller lines on the sides that had less traffic and fewer people.
Guy on YT ebike rode the hill up multiple times with the dropper in the lowest position possible with no effort whatsoever. Sure ebikes are just like a regular bikes.
His knees must have been f***ed this evening....or maybe not?

Hey, he was likely elderly or having some heart condition, or being able to do 40+ miles in the wilderness, give him a break.Guy on YT ebike rode the hill up multiple times with the dropper in the lowest position possible with no effort whatsoever. Sure ebikes are just like a regular bikes.

Slept like crap. Possibly because full of cheese and beer. Almost said fuck it and stayed in bed, but forced myself out for a ride which wound up being the right decision. Trails were frozen and mostly empty, and had a good ride. Made a stop for potatoes on the way home, grocery store happened to still have Victory winter cheer, I thought it was sold out everywhere. So score there. Have stacked a sufficient amount of firewood for impending snowpocalypse, first flakes came down while I was stacking. Forecast is now 13-17". I'll believe it when I see it. Bird feeders refilled. Now a shower, then perhaps a brisket cheesesteak and beer for lunch.
Those viking genes make the Danes look like 25 when they in reality are 80.Hey, he was likely elderly or having some heart condition, or being able to do 40+ miles in the wilderness, give him a break.
The ebike also nearly rides itself as it alows this elderly to hit the road gap I posted a pic of a couple of weeks ago. 
Heading out to meet up with a few friends to ride, then do a backyard fire pit all spread out safely for beers and takeout. This is the conversation that ensued as we were getting in the car:
Me: “How many beers are we bringing?”
Financée: “Forty!”
Perfect.

Brisket Cheesesteak?
Yes, please.
Yes, please.
I feel much less fat about lunch beers and a cheesesteak now
Also I need a sign like that.

As someone who finds himself far too often in the metaphoric winter season after 27ish years of couple-dom, your springtime passion warms the cockles of my heart...
