Snow on the Dogwoods

Well we all know the saying that "Winter is not over until it snows on the dogwoods" so I guess this means that winter is officially over.

After weeks of amazing riding temps and traction, tonight's event is going to be a one of a kind for this year. After a quick check of the Pollywood weather cam and a visit to any weather webs site you can see that we are in for a wintry mix if not a full blown white-out.


Wintry Mix anyone?



In respect of this being the first Tuesday of April and it being a sloppy one, I will be rolling my Old Soldier tonight (or maybe it is b/c my hub has failed again for the 4th time on my geared bike).  What a POS that wheel is.  Anyone want to buy it?  I might even pay you.

Please dress warm, maybe bring some flasks but don't peter out.  this is an important event to celebrate what little weather we get and that much of is is in the fluffy white form is that much more important.

One!

    Following NO coche's lead, I too will be bringing my sniffles with me. I read somewhere that the best remedy for a cold is to dress in layers of lycra and head into a snow storm at night for some mountain biking. Might haven been in Good Housekeeping......

    THREE!

    The coldest I've ever been was on a snow/freezing rain Tuesday.I think my outfit plan will be to carry extra outer-layers so I can change as they get wet.
