Conditions here are so good right now, if you can ignore the 0c temps.
Girlfriend has had a chest cold since the end of her cruise, so today was rough on the lungs. Called it quits midway.
Such great dirt right now and with the temps, double bonus with there being much less people out.
Also...are those new wheels and fork?

Good, yes! But I do enjoy le fatbike. As long as it stays solid its great. Supposed to get warmer + rain later this week. Le sux.
Yep, @junkyard 36 and a set of reserve wheels. My original wheelset was pretty beat up. Reminds me I should send my Pike to get it fix and keep it as backup.
How is Monty?
That your local superfund site?
This is another trail system we call Konnowac Pass. It's on the verge of being a "public" asset. I've been cutting trails out at Kwac since 2011 and there's close to 20 miles of singletrack. It's been locals only since the beginning but thats shifting...
Heres an older map
Sorry, zooming in on the computer I see it's fields of some kind. On the phone it looked like earthworks - when they're either burying or unburying the pollution
IMO, alot of these fields are getting enough chemical applications to be considered toxic. Its better than outright dumping and burying pollution but still knarly.Sorry, zooming in on the computer I see it's fields of some kind.

First proper ride since I singlespeeded it again. (It's normally rigid through the winter). 25 miles and 3000ft of vert at a perfect loop for it, Buffalo Creek.
Yessir, it's the first time I've been able to run that tensioner pushing up, gearing of 30/20. I always had to have it pulling down when I used to run 32/20 due to the extra chain length and it always ended up giving me grief. Today it was perfect, zero issues.

Extra sketch with those flip flops
I used to walk my Grandmas dog here when I was 10 or 11. The grid points toward the north here? The hillock is Laurier Park, right? St Viatuer Bagels are down there.
I run 32x22 but has me some horizontal dropouts. Oval chainring even, so good! SS and oval are a match made in heaven.
My preference of rocks is known here.
This photo is on the west side of the mountain, not the east. There is a place on that side that looks similar to this, but I don’t know it as laurier park… maybe the name changed? It would be parc jeanne mance/mont royal, near parc & mont royal streets. If that’s not it, I can’t think of where else. A fresh bagel would be fantastic right now.
snuck out for a solo lunch ride today to see if my back was better. It was a nice day for a ride. Perhaps one of the last days in "the comfort zone" (49°F/10°C)...
totally. that's the less traveled north side.
Boooooooo!
Usually, I have annual maintenance done on my Tracer in December. This time, I think that it's going to be in January.
