Well it is the season to eat.
With the eats comes comfortability.
With comfortability comes horizontalness.

It's been a crazy weekend with some wild weather for December.
With the craziness comes a good time though.
With the bad comes some good.

And, it was a good time along old 105 to Wakefield from downtown. Icy shoulders brought joys and thrills.
Getting to the 105 through the streets of Hull were a btch though.
The 366 (Edelweiss road) brought a really good time as it is dry as a freshly wiped bottom.
The 307 was rough at times as narrow corridors of snow walls brought a tight squeeze at times.

Overall, not a bad ride. A good day of rain brings some good times.
If you like ice (ice love'n momma), you'll like it along some the major roadways across the river.

enjoy it while its here cause I'm sure more snow is on the way...

If you're looking to get out of the dungeon on the final days of holidays...
Had enough of being stuck inside?
Spinning spinning spinning like a hamster going no place fast?

We'll after a long hard night of new years gala at some fine Indian food joint, my body was aching to head out. So, I did.
But, I forgot about the tiny bit of snow fall we had between the last rain fall (which froze up, just perfectly, the shoulders of the roads) to now.
Getting from downtown to hull is always a messy situation.
Then I jumped on the old 105 thinking it would be a good time. But, the tiny snow fall we had created a slush fest on top of the finely iced shoulder.
So, it sucked big bananas.

Managed to get all the way to Tulip on my way to Wakefield.
Turned the sludge festive two wheel ride around only to find Radapaw ridge climb looking me in the face later in the ride.
Good little climb and a good bomb down. Good thing I fixed the brakes (I'm typically lazy when it comes to cleaning or fixing my ride) or I'd end up bombing through the old 105!
I then took Notch road to Ch Montange. Not bad. I'm sure I pissed off a couple of drivers cause there wasn't all that much room on the climb nor on the decent. F-k'm!
That was the fun part of the ride. Pretty dry and no road crap sticking.

So, if you are looking for a good time outside on your ride, yah may want to hit some of the back country roads... that's my next game plan anyhow. It was good for a little while (old 105 etc..). Love a good rain fall in the winter, brings some good riding time.
Enjoy.

here's a couple of pics cause I felt like a tourist today.

Good climb time (short but sweet)
