Somebody pinch me. I'm green with envy.
So I got out yesterday for a good 6 hour hike. We are still pretty wet over here but with the green out, I'm guessing that water will soon be drunk up and feeding all that grows. The thorn bushes have exploded in new growth already. The grass changed at least 3-4 depths of green in the time I was out.
So anyway, back to the point: I meet a couple out yesterday on a pair of Salsa's version of the Pugsley. Those things just float over the muck. You'd have to see the tracks to believe it. I've always thought it would be cool to build up a snowbike. Yesterday that idea jumped up several rungs on the proverbial and ever growing toy list. It's always been a simple idea to squash with the consideration of "how much snow riding am I really going to do." Now I'll have to find a deeper bag of reason.
