Snow ride.

I thought I'd share a few photos from our ride on Monday. We decided to head up-island to Duncan to ride Mt. Tzouhalem. There was a fair bit of snow on the mountain, and it made for a great ride...

...Although, the wet and sticky snow made riding up very difficult. On more than one occasion we were forced to pick up the rear ends of our bikes and push our the bikes on their front tires because the snow was packing up so badly that it would lock the rear wheel.

Once we made it to the top however, the snow made the trails fantastic to ride. It was so much fun to slip and slide down the hill with the barest resemblance of control.

Fresh tracks are always great, with skis or bike.

Chevy and Claire starting out on 'Finality', an amazing trail.

Chedda' B. riding a clearcut.

The tricky conditions made for some hilarious moments...

Towards the bottom of the hill, the snow was gone and the sun came out. Twas a grand ride.
