SO one ride a day is not enough for me! well this morning when Ben-o left my house he had said he was going to do the belmont ride. I Said what the hey and Joined the ride.
After various delays , we got started. the trails Looked Good made me wonder if I should have changeded from studded tires

Well SHortly after we topped the hill conditions changed and I was very glad I had studs on.

Coming down this hill was interesting because the approach to the bridge was a sheet of Ice. Nick Crashed ( pic did not come out :( ) and dam near put that new Iron Horse in the drink.

Ben-o had his studs on this morning atVietnam , but he changed them to regular tires in between rides , Big mistake
