I disagree - just a skeleton. Ghosts >> scarier than skeletons. Unless this happens:

Crazy week of work and Jeep/House work. That being said I should have everything updated tomorrow. This weeks bonus....back to the multi-park. At least 30 minutes is needed in each park. Here is the catch....30 minutes bonus for each park...no limits on parks. Must be done in one continuous ride.

Ride one was at ramapo with the rogue OOS group. Conditions were downright treacherous at spots. Even the snow was beyond slippery as it had no give and was covered with a layer of ice. We decided to turn back and live to fight another day. Ride two was with the kiddies. We decided to go on a hot chocolate run. Our local spot was closed, so we ended up at dunkin donuts.

It was very moist. I rode off road for about 3/4 of a mile and the trials were completely underwater. It sucks, but it appears that there will not be any mountain biking in the near future. I explored a couple of parks I have never ridden and rode through South Mountain. It was a good ride.

Arthur Brisbane does not Disappoint
Long day. Started off in Roselle at the 8AM services for Scout Sunday at the Bethlehem Baptist Church. Can he get an AMEN? Yes he can. Then the kids had Sunday School back in HP, followed by a play date with classmates. Basically meant play date in the woods for me. Treaded lightly; the few spots too moist were walked.
Met back up with my crew + 7 more for RU Hoops @ the RAC d. Minnesota.
Ride On!

I think the bonus was for an Oak tree, I tied a yellow ribbon around one at HM if you happen to pass it. Oak barrels for some of Mila Kunis' whiskey! Good job.2/23

Hope that photo of Oobaa47 hopping from that fallen oak tree onto a boulder counts towards his bonus. Not an easy task on a fat bike.

OK a few people got the riddle bonus - obviously it was a living thing to find and photograph, one could assume a plant. First line answer is juniper (juniper berries flavor gin), second line answer is virginia (blue ridge mountains along the western border). Juniperus virginiana or red cedar. I'll accept anything in the juniper/cedar family. Also said no clues but couldn't resist - my ride pic from tuesday (left side a line of cedars - not many around here):
So far @w_b and @ridgehog get the bonus, someone else got it but hasn't posted a pic yet. Well done!

Lions on the Ready
Rested the weekend away other than trialsin around with the boy. The lions showed up a few days early, which is good because it will help dry this MFer out. Lots of debris and ice in the hills / wooded area but avoided all of the death chunks.

Enter Pictures/Story Here: This had wind, rain, warm, cold, mud, 24" deep water, geese, deer, bluebirds, a Red Tail Hawk and two other nuts on bikes out there.
Stopped for lunch at my favorite restaurant:
Trails were too wet, except on top of the ridge.
