| HAPPY WINTER FIRST!!! |
"...You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip slidin' away"
- Trailhead: Parking lot
- Riders: Al, Bob, Matt, OMMB
- Miles: not sure...5 or so
- Weather: snowing- Temp: 30
- Trail Conditions: 3-4 inches of Snow
- Technical Level: treacherous
- Wildlife: bunny footprints, deer footprints, doggy...oh wait a minute, more likely coyote footprints
- Whoops, Yikes, and Oh Sheets: one slip here, another slide there, all over the place
Notes: A freaky snowstorm double-backed on Southeastern Mass dropping a foot of Snow on the Cape. Only a dusting at home in Warren, so I ventured out to meet the gang figuring they wouldn't cancel plans. Got in the parking lot at Massasoit to find 3 to 4 inches of Snow already on the ground! It was light fluffy stuff so peddling through wasn't a problem...but damn slippery! It's probably the ONLY time I'll ever hear Matt say... "Al, please take a route with no hills, this is tough!". I honestly didn't find it too bad. Slippery roots were the biggest problem, but with a little air out of the rear tire, I had a blast! (although I did unwillingly clear a few small pines trees of their snow)...good times.
Tidbits: Kona likes the snow...who knew?
Happy Trails,
OMMB
