Cycling 1:50:00 [3]
I wanted to get out in the calm before the storm. Bash and I had snowshoed the first km of deep snow to the main trail, but it was cleat-clogging, tire-bogging wet cement, and where I wasn’t wallowing I was hike-a-biking. Maybe a shorter bike with fatter tires and platform pedals would do better here.
The main trail was excellent riding on the snowmobile and tractor tracks. I tried some singletrack, but every time I got off the narrow packed bit on tight switchbacks I bogged down, so I stuck to firm doubletrack which was great riding and I did all the Palgrave doubletrack. The last km was miserable again, but on such a nice day who cares?
