Well, considering that my boy is begging to be taken up snowboarding, and

that one of my Christmas presents I get to open Friday (before we travel

to the relatives), is new xc ski boots, and wax, I gotta check em out & see

how they work, right? Or a little alpine downhill.

Yes, it was amazing out riding tonight. Everybody was grinning big.

Me too. Year round riding weather is nice. If you can call summer in the deep south "riding
weather", when it is nearly impossible to enjoy a ride after 11 AM because of the heat and humidity.
Not to mention the swarms of biting flies and big-ass spiders.

Winter is the season for mountain biking in the deep south. Summer is for the die-hards. The others
remove their visors and become roadies.
