I forgot to lower my tire pressure, so it was dicey. It was a bit much for me at this point, but I know I'll do it again once I'm more comfortable in snow. I want to try it with around 40 psi and see how it feels. I was at about 80 psi, so my tires were pretty hard...
Red - you are hardcore and just plain rock! You rode your bike the day after a blizzard AND in 30-40 mph gusting winds You are a much stronger woman than I, and it sounds like you had fun! Beautiful ride you have there, and please remember to post a picture once you install her panniers!
