SO after a Niice day yesterday and a Lot of Snow Melting , we decided to do an off road ride today. it was me, CP, IF_rider and Berkshire_rider there was a lot more snow that we expected and it mad for some tough riding. but it was almost worse when we hit some tracks from some one riding yesterday , be cause they froze solid and made for some tricky riding.. I guess it is time to Put the studded tires on. IF_rider was using them , and I had my Front tire on But CP and steve had niether .

and way here is CP sluggin it up a hill and this area was nice because the snow cover was a lot less.




CP taking a New line down a rock Face, with a little huck at the bottom.



IF_rider same rock , but Picture taken from different angle



Berkshire_rider rolling down the firewall



CP crossing a creek. about 2 weeks ago on a night ride I Endo'd into this creek



CP droppinga small rock onto some fresh snow.



IF_rider checking out a tree ride.



IF_rider on the tree. I pressed teh shutter just a second 2 early before he side hopped off the tree.

he didn't want to do it again for the camera.



and finally when we got back , Steve was having some fun jumping snow banks .

Hey Splat
I've finally made it over to the ridemonkey forum. Since you mentioned you cross post your pics from the NEMBA forum.

Great 'Nam ride, thanks for the call/invite - it was a perfect way to end my holiday vacation. (insert thumbs up here).

Hey Steve, It was great to finally meet you!

To answer the tire question, I have a MutanoRaptor 2.4 up front, and a MotoRaptor 2.4 on the Back. Works great for me.

I looked at them briefly, and they weren't Weirwolves, but they did look like a WTB tire. Maybe a Moto-Raptor? :confused:
just curious, last years icycle dh was in the snow and i felt as though the weirwolves worked very well. Looks like a fun ride.

Endo'd in a creek on a night ride in winter? Shudder!
It was a tad chilly to say the least. but I got lucky and did not get my hands or feet wet. so they stayed warm , and as long as we kept moving ( pedaling , working ) I stayed warm but if we stopped for any length of time I started to get a chill.
