I couldn't wait any longer for my first ride with my bike, so my husband and I went out yesterday. It had snowed a lot over night so it was an interesting ride. Here are some pics...


We got to the trail pretty early ~9am but fortunately some had beat us and we had a good path to follow. Here is me following the path. Next to the trail you can see some paw prints that cut through. Lots of animals use the trail apparently.


Another shot of me going through some fresh snow


Nice shot of the trail ahead


Here is my husband coming around a turn


A picture my husband took of himself while riding


A cheesy couple shot of us on a bench. We were smiling, but you can't tell


And a final shot of me in the snow



I was warm once I got started. I highly recommend toe warmers, the kept me really warm. In the end, it was a tough ride. I wasn't ready for the challenge and didn't have the greatest time. It was an up and down ride, loved it, hated it, loved it, couldn't wait to get out of the trail. The most frusterating part...trying to get clipped in!! I love my pedals, but the were terrible in the snow. Riding in the snow is like riding in sand, the second you stop pedaling, you stop moving. I think I'll go again, because it's a good challenge, but I'll be more mentally prepared for the challenge next time.
