Fatbiking and Other Junk

Still Going.

Since my last post it got colder (down to the low teens at night) so the fatbiking is ok.  I rode the Hagen Trail on Friday and it was just on the edge of doable.  I fell off the balance beam a couple of times and wallowed in heavy wet snow up to my thighs.  I rode it yesterday and the colder temps have made the singletrack much better but holy shit is the balance beam getting higher and narrower.  A 1000' section of the Sidewalk trail between bridge three and two is completely off camber and super narrow so only suitable for walking.  The rest of Hagen is doing well but this is pretty much the only singletrack available for fatbiking now.  Running out of options.

Trail Conditions.

I haven't been up Cache in almost a week and haven't ridden there in almost ten days.  Getting a bit bored with it.  I wish the Forest Service would allow mechanized grooming of the singletrack.  I know they are available, as this video shows:

Best Tracksled is the maker.  Love to see one of these here in Jackson.

Current Conditions.

Looks like we have a significant change in the weather coming.  Temps should (and have) climbed to the high twenties and it looks like snow is starting to fall as I write this so time to get out and groom Cache.  I should probably wait til after the storm but no time later this week so now or never.
