Normally we'd have quite a bit of lake-effect snow by now. But yesterday was sunny and mid-40's. GORGEOUS. I went for a trail run in the AM. The parking lot at the state park was packed! Tons of people jogging, hiking, walking their dogs. I have never seen it that busy before.
Then I took the kids for a bike ride in the afternoon and we played outside until the sunset! I couldn't believe how mild the weather was.
Supposed to start trending cold and blustery towards the end of the week. We'll see. I'm okay with a mild winter. Last winter dragged on forever.

Last year we had over 1' of snow on the ground at this time. This year, nada. We grilled outside last night. My x-country skis and snowshoes continue to gather dust.

Shefly,
Sounds like a great weekend!! The roads are somewhat clear here, although you would definitely have to pick your route and time of day very carefully. I'm glad to hear that your passion for your MTB is returning!:D
The Nationals went well, although it's hard for me to imagine that they are at the beginning of January! IT seems that they don't put a whole lot of emphasis on them from the managing groups... Iactually had a conversation about this with the race director back in December at a waxing clinic. He mentioned the conflicts with the World Cup races, although there generally is a weekend in January that is a bit later and doesn't interfere. At any rate, it was great to see the competitors and all of the energy that it created!
Have a great time in the Sunshine State!
