And at the top, a good place to take a breather...
It's nice to have a fun guardrailed descent so close, even if it's only a couple hundred feet down. Great descent, though. Especially when the snow is hardpacked and frozen.
Then, it was back to the flats for some more snow flattrackin' action. Totally flat 90 degree corners at speed in packed snow is a delightfull expereince on a cross bike. The views on the way back aren't too bad, either.All in all, it was a great ride. I put off riding because of the cold and ended up being one of those days you only do a couple of times a year. You know, the routes that you only hit those couple of times a year when the snow is packed and temps are cold. The kind that isn't much fun on a sunny summer day but absolutely hits the spot on a cold and wintery one. Today was one of those days.
