There's a burly trail near by called Jugs so.....Trail is the tittays, eh?
In that case you may or may not have use for the following phrase
Got loose in titty city! Slapping the back end all over the place.
Icy crap. Even with 2.6" tires around 15psi, I still packed it in after a half hour to go drink beer in the bong garage.
Tough lunch ride. Fluffy snow covering ice/slush. Almost no grip but still barely rideable. This has been a terrible month for riding. 
put in a nice 22 mile loop in le pisgah today. spent a bunch of time on one of the trails clearing downfall. things were in awesome, burly, rugged condition. wish it had been a tad less rainy. it also got colder as the day went on, which kinda sucked (started mid 50s, ended mid-40s) but had a blast overall and super glad i decided to go.
gotta get up to get down
just another day in god’s country for the agnostic mountain biker
i feel like legs and bike were dirtier than that IRL. def. glad there was a towel in the trunk to put on the seat!

I dunno about about over there, but it's been a terrible winter...Tough lunch ride. Fluffy snow covering ice/slush. Almost no grip but still barely rideable. This has been a terrible month for riding.
Weather has been doing a snow-rain-melt-freeze-snow loop for a long time. Sucks for everything
One side benefit, I guess, is that there is less packed down trails in a few areas. So hopefully they melt quickly during the thaw, rather than remaining a ribbon of ice until end of March.
Visited my old folks again. 5 days there, on 4 days I rode 2 different pump tracks (1x the paved one, 3x the dirt one). Judging by how my legs feel this can be considered training, right? Plenty of young rippers on both tracks. Taught one random kid how to ride it right and he went from not making 1/3 of the dirt pump track to all the way around w/o pedaling. Success! 
Yep, the worst winter I remember.I dunno about about over there, but it's been a terrible winter...

My little guy has been aching to go for a trail ride. conditions were hard and not too cold today, so I thought we'd give it a try:
was tough going:
but he persisted and didn't get discouraged:
the bikes:
I think with a fatbike he could actually have had a lot of fun. Hmmm...

Thought I should add a Southern Hemisphere counterpoint.... was around 38C (100 F) today. Toasty!
The dirt is excellent in the non snowy parts of Cali and the snow is good in the snow covered parts. Everything is right with the world
My buddy's b-day yesterday. Rode his favorite local trail.
Desert vegetation starting to come alive. These poppy flowers are about 3 times the size we normally see, presumably because of metric crap tons of rain and snow we got this winter.
Spotted this weirdo. Its peduncle looks like a ribbon cable.
Yuccas blossoming (doesn't happen often in the wild, from what I've seen).

Video of my buddy Karl getting absolutely destroyed on some wet, muddy, rowdy trail we were riding over the weekend. Watch till the second crash when they get back on the bikes around 1:00. Dude gets freaking tamohawked/starfished down the hillside
I was driving the shuttle rig this lap so I didn't get to watch the chaos.
@Tantrum Cycles you might get a kick out of this since you know Karl.

Pushing. A buddy was coming the opposite direction via snowshoes. Going to do another 'shoe lap tomorrow, then it'll be packed in decently enough to actually ride. Got to make sure the stuntry is cleared!
Bro I watched that with my girlfriend on repeat for about 5 minutes just dying of laughter.
DAMMIT KARL
