I believe the Sunday morning ride was our first bonafied snow ride of the season. The shaded trails were in great condition - firm and fast - and the fresh snow was spectacular. At 9am most of the trails already had tracks in the powder and we encountered at least 2 other biking groups during our ride. We did have some challenges with cleats clogging up with snow. Maybe will try WD40 non-stick treatment on the cleats next time. Another sure-fire solution would be fewer dabs, but with the snow covered roots and rocks this could be at the cost of a busted collarbone so we'll try the WD40 first - stay tuned...
We caught the bridge crossing on film and discovered that the main causeway is actually an old piece of "Creative Playthings" playground equipment (possible trail name coming). Glad to see that even though it is semi-retired, it is still serving it's purpose as a plaything.

Temps are up and down this week, Monday and Thursday look coldest and so promise the best riding conditions (frozen / firm trails). Wed and Thr look pretty mild (a.k.a muddy).
