    Sounds like fun (and it won't be -1000000*)!

    One question, would a bike with 2.35/2.4" tires do alright on the snow?

    Debatable. With cool temps it should be fine. We are really not talking snow in most places any more as hard packed ice. I would say a crap shoot but try it and see.

    I have been keeping an eye on the trails for the group ride from CamRock Sport tomorrow. Temps are falling into the mid 20's tonight. And only getting into the mid 30's tomorrow, versus the 50's today. I think we should be OK for a trail ride tomorrow. I will get out and scout the trails to see where and what we can ride beforehand. So I guarantee we can ride some of the trails. My guess is we will need to skip a small section on the hillside next to the creek, but other than that we should be fine.

    And the timing will be perfect. We will get back just as they start to sell the pint glasses and tap into the six (yes six!) barrels of wonderful brews from Ale Asylum! And followed by that the music will get going for a great evening. There are a limited number of CamRock Sport glasses and when they are gone they are gone. There are no more. An instant collectors item :)

    All you have to do tomorrow is show up and throw your name in the hat. They are giving away a beautiful Trek bike and a Saris bike rack for free! Heck you don't even have to be present at drawing time to win. Just show up and throw your name in the hat. They also have a full table of 1/2 off bike accessories and parts ready to go. A couple of beautiful light systems in there!

    All kinds of demos going on in the morning. And at 1:30 you can save yourself the cost of driving out to Cambridge by learning how to get your own bike ready for spring riding. Free Prep Your Bike For Spring Riding class. I think this one is going to be popular.

    See you there! You know I will be around. Stop on out and say Heh ;D

    Just an FYI. Prolly the last day trails are going to be open for awhile. The bare spots are showing up and the creek is a rising. CRI bridge is under water.
