Good to get a ride with the fat tire bikes on the first snow of the Winter. Temps were in the teens, the ride was along the Minnesota River. Jeff is riding his commuter fat tire LAMERE Bike. He has a race bike that he raced at St. Croix Falls which is about 3 pounds lighter at about 22 pounds. It is good this year to have 2 different bikes to ride, they are both set up to fit him.
The River Trail is my good to location in the winter, with the massive trees and ever changing conditions, every ride is good.
A few days later with warm temps that thawed the new snow and then a freeze, it gave the trail a glare ice surface. I am running studs on all of our fat tire bikes, the only way one could ride in these conditions is with the 45NRTH studded tires. Nice ride this night. Capped it off with a cold Alaskan...
Warm up to 36 degrees and out comes the New BMW F800 GS
A chance to get out and ride, gotta make it an adventure. 120 miles on this day with temps in the 30s, rode south of the cities and rocked about 50 miles of gravel roads. Did some hiking and exploring on some public land, found this frozen Beaver dam. Good times!
Lucky to be able to ride the moto up till 1 week before Christmas. This day Weez and I both leaving in the morning on our 2 wheeled rigs.
Back on Fat Bikes
Night riding spotting critters and riding on ice...actuality frozen mud and ice.
Christmas Day ride.
OK...
Snow and ice flows on the river are giving us the winter weather we like.
New Years Eve bonfire and a bit of spirits up in the North woods. 165 miles North of the cities it was a winter wonderland! Arrived at the cabin just after midnight, enjoyed the fire, beer and wine till about 4:30 am...a good New Years for sure.
Welcome 2016! Cheers!
Had a very good adventure ride on New Years Day in the Northern Minnesota woods. Several hours of riding the trails and exploring areas on our fat bikes capped off a very good Holiday week of mountain bike riding and visiting family.
Damn lucky to have our health and the capabilities to be involved in such a great sport of Fat Tire Biking. We are fortunate to be riding on these LAMERE Cycles fat bikes, these bikes rock and add to the experience.
Hammer Head...
The sun was setting on the North woods as we arrived back at the truck...a good day.
Fat Tire Bike On!!
