Well sort of , kind of , NOT SO MUCH.
We couldn't pass up the opportunity to at least give it a try.
There were alot of walkers and hikers in the lot but no other cars with bike racks except us.
We did the main lot 50ft up Weldon and dropped into the woods. Initially the trail wasn't so bad because ther had been enough foot traffic to pack the snow down and give a reasonable base to ride on. That quickly ended and even with that little bit of packed snow, any deviation off that very narrow section and you went right into the crusty stuff and it totally sucked ya in and made for a tough time trying to get back into a groove and flow.
We rode for about 40 minutes,without snow that ride is probably 15 minutes . Then my buddy had some major bike issues that were not fixable on the trail, so we made a break for it, hit the campground, I rode back on the road and came back to pick him up .
here's a couple of quick snap shots, it really was a beautiful day reagardless, we were just happy to have gotten out.
I also have to give major thanks to Jeromy at High Gear for turning me onto the Gore Wind Stopper jacket, it's the cat's meow! Possibly the best money spent on anything I've purchased bike related so far.
