What a great thread! I'll post pics as soon as I can figure out how (I'm a bit tech challenged). OMG She fly you ride in the snow and ride tandem you are tough lady! Thanx Mimi for this thread.

We had our first XC race of the season on the weekend & I finally have a pic that doesn't look to bad of me..

This was right before the end on the NON pea gravelly section of the trail..

Shefly..doing XC in the snow looks like tons o fun!

LPH - thanks. Hard to tell that when I was in second grade I knocked all 8 of my front teeth out at once .

Mimi, CC, and Jelee - riding in the snow isn't really that hard - MOST of the time . Around here, there are some months where if you don't do that, you just don't ride. Studded tires certainly help.

And Jelee - the tandem is FUN. On that ride, we had 5 tandems out for almost 2 hours. Terrific sight (although not for some drivers).

Emily - SO JEALOUS to see you 1. racing already (my first is this weekend), and 2. racing in shorts and short sleeves! It's still COLD here, and those temps seem a LONG way off.

CC - terrific photo from your MTB race. Looks like you were having fun!

Shefly-I came 3rd by fluke...there were 6 of us in sport women & would have come 4th but..one chick fell & fractured her thumb , one was young n very very new to mtb'ing & withdrew, the other chick i'm not sure about but she dnf'd as well.

Oddly enough..i did the "look for any rubbish" lap & I had to take it a bit easier so i could see stuff. Anywho, I noticed a few bits of trail that i didn't even remember riding a few hours before..I said to someone "I don't remember this bit from the event"....Too funny how when you're busting your behind at an event, things become a blur...

I have to also say that the track sessions have helped for cornering

CC, that's a GREAT photo of you.
LPH those are all very artistic photos... maybe i've seen you before but others haven't!
Ehirsch, great to meet you too! (well, finally see you, that is)

Loved your pics Mimi!!

Shefly- I was racing! But I am now dealing with my 2nd round of bronchitis this year and have now been off the bike for almost 2 weeks(well I rode on and off through the first week and got worse). So now I feel like I have just slid so far back in training, looks like I will be off of racing for the next month or so to work on training more.

but yes, definitely warm here already!

CC - Looks like a fun trail - at least where the picture was taken!
