Slacking

I have taken the last few days off and have done nothing productive, I was going to go for a ride today but I backed out. Snowing, and if I don't need to go out I won't. Sorry for being lazy, hopefully I will get some film developed and have some pics to post soon.

Bikes of Upstate New York, A.K.A. Sam Walton's Revenge

I don't usually poke fun at other people's bike but check this one out, spotted outside Mickey D's
This is the kind of bikes that cover Upstate New York.
On deeper inspection:
Yes the forks or stem are on backwards.
And yes that is a gel comfort saddle:
With rear suspension and fat tires.
Judging by the seat height this person has about a 22" inseam.

Clear Sailing

Well the bike trail is finally thawed thanks to our unseasonable warm weather in New York.
Now I don't have to worry about being ran off the road :)

Thank You Snowmobilers

A special thanks goes out to all the snowmobilers that illegally use the rail tral for their personal trail.
 Because of the warm weather we have had I decided to give the rail trail a go. Friday after work I headed down I hit some snow and ice, nothing nonnegotiable at first, just a little sliding.
Then I hit a large  section of ice about 1000' long and tried to ride it. I got about 10' in and crack, down I went. Up I came with a severely bruised ego.
