It was rediculously warm today, the high was 45 degrees. The high temp brought a brutal 18 mph wind though. Roads were a mix of slush, blown snow, and solid ice.

Second day skate skiing

I’m hooked. Skate Skiing is my new second favorite wintertime hobby (next to my favorite hobby period).  Did a couple warmup laps on the flat seciton of the course this morning and then we headed across the road to the hills, now that is a LOT of work. I’m finally getting the hang of it…ish, but this is deffinetly a technique intensive activity.  The people who really know how do it fly by as if it’s effortless.  I’ve wanted skate skis since I first saw someone glide by me on a local trail, but now that I’ve done it a couple times I don’t know how I ever lived without them.

Fixie ride to Leverich Canyon

Nine degrees Farhenheight on a clear, calm night, I got sort of fed up with being in the lab so I decided to head south out of town. I figured if I got cold or the roads were impassable out of town ( we got about 8 inches of snow last night ) I’d just turn round.  The night was so calm I just kept riding until I got to the foothills of the Gallatin range south of Bozeman, by the time I got home I had well over ninteen miles behind me. I think I’ll buy some rollers roughly never. I still need to get my ass back in the pool though.

12/23/08

I rode 18 miles today (two seperate rides), on a fixie with studs. The temperature varied between 0 and 5 degrees Fahrenheight. Conditions were a relatively interesting mix of packed snow, solid ice, and completely unpredictable churned up snow from the 5-8 inches of snowfall we had in the last 24 hours. I read a couple blog posts today written by people complaining about riding their rollers since it was “too nasty to ride outside”, smiled.

2 degrees F and 5 inches of fresh

Five inches of fresh snow and counting, and temps 2 degrees Fahrenheit and dropping, were the conditions for a little after work fixie lap around town. It was a little more like surfing than riding a bike, since not even studded tires grab fresh snow churned to brown/grey paste by automobiles on unplowed roads. I had to steer with my whole body using the rear tire more like a rudder. It was a good ride, better than some rides late last week in 20 below weather.
