Remember:
Wheel & Sprockets Winter Riding Clinic on Feb 9th 6:30PM

Great Snowy Day Ride

Well cleaned the bike is ready to ride. Cleaned, Lubed, Tires Aired...
Headed to the Eastside from Brookfield... It was a good ride lots of the snow melted but I was ready..

We also got a stock of the Conti studded tires..

Then after riding about 20 miles I stopped at roast for a cup of coffee at Roast... See the Lefty in the Snow?

See what Waxing your bike does, This was after like 20 miles most of the Snow just sheds off..

See Spike Claws Shed Snow

See that halo around my front tire? That's snow being ejected out the front of my fenders. These Continental Spike Claw tires shed snow better than any other snow tire I've ridden. I highly recommend them. Also check out the Niterider MiNewt.700 Dual lights on the handle bar. A great light set to be sure.

Who says you can't go snowboarding without a car!
