Between Mike and myself we had four ski-bikes of varying designs that we cobbled together from bmx framesets. They are a pretty god way to hurt yourself while having a lot of fun. We went to Boyce and rode them on the ski slopes there. We might do it again soon while the snow is still good…
I’m feeling a little better after my month long bout with a nasty and stubborn cold so let’s go riding. Larry got his new Intense Spider 29er together and wants to test it out. I’ll be on the Intense Tracer with the Hammerschmidt testing that out so it should be interesting. We’ll probably be doing some bike swapping out there too so come join the frigid fun.
