Finally Got in some riding last week.........

The temps finally climbed out of the basement and became decent.

I like getting in a ride during the winter months, it feels like I'm getting by with something.

I wound up with some comparison PICS from a Jan 09 ride:

JAN 2009


JAN 2010


JAN 2009


JAN 2010

You can definately tell that 2010 so far has been colder and wetter than 2009.

A sidetrip down a road that I hadn't been down before found an interesting dam:



It's very elaborate for a private dam on a small pond.


Who says that you can't ride a VALK in the snow?


I'm hoping that Feb brings an early spring that is perfect for riding.

Looks like you had a nice ride.  We are seeing the same difference in the '09 and '10 winters here on the Front Range.  Last year, it was frequently in the 60's and 70's, setting records for high temps and dryness.  2010 has been a more typical winter here.
