I am really happy about this! I rode on it when the paving was underway this fall.

I am in the process of finishing up the route for a 200k RUSA permanent in Tahoe/Donner. It won't be rideable for a while of course (though I did see some impressive bikes with studded tires at the Nordic center this week.). For now, we snowshoe!
