"Winter Wonderland" - 12/23/10 - Big River - RI

- Trailhead: exit 6 parking
- Riders: OMMB plus thirteen (ages 24 to 66)
- Miles: over 10
- Weather: light snow
- Temp: 31
- Trail Conditions: nice hardpack...slippery leaves on the uphills
- Whoops, Yikes, and Oh Sheets: only witnessed a sweet slide out with a soft landing (luckily) into some pine needles by Al.

Notes: Bikeworks four grouped with others for a kick-ass ride through the Wintery woods of Big River.  Steady snow, but not too heavy, made for a nice Wintery scene.  Only a dusting on the trails, so the ride was the usual very fast paced.  The group we rode with offered hot cider, hot cocoa, chunks of ham, cheese, trail mix, dried fruits, and nuts in the parking lot after the ride.  EXCELLENT treat!!!

Tidbits: Both the 24 year old and the 66 year old rode in the lead pack...hope I can still ride that fast at 66 (or even 56)!!

Happy Holiday Trails,
OMMB
