Went out for the first snowy ride of the season. Not a huge ride, just around campus and some little trails. Had fun riding on the snow covered soccer field, seeing how far we could skid and lean the bikes over and still have them remain upright. Felt like a kid again.

Did a group night ride last night. Rode with a bunch of guys that are leaps and bounds ahead of me technically. I have a hard time keep up with them during the day, so following them down steep, rocky chutes at night with snow and wet leaves wasn't much fun. At least I was out on the bike though. It was 33 degrees.

I rode around on the DMR last night testing it out and stuff - fun little bike and man those V-Brakes work really well! I've only had crappy V-brakes before and the nice avid v-brake in the rear kicked arse.

I'll probably spin around on the DMR again tonight too. :)

Just got back from a nice ride. It's definitely a fall day out. I love the sounds of the leaves crunching under my tires. :) I was slightly disgusted to come upon some crows eating a dead deer.
