Tom F. Joined me for a chill ride of the Monster X course at Pocahontas. Upon rolling out we quickly noticed how icy it was in any place where snow had been compacted. Once you got in a icy tire rut, it was hard to get out. Feeling your front tire bounce back and forth between the sides of an ice channel is unsettling to say the least!
We neared the road crossing and I noticed Tom had dropped back a bit and was talking to another rider. Joe Fish was out policing Pocahontas trails and joined us for the rest of the ride.
As the temps rose, the ice and snow started melting and we wrapped up a nice chill ride just as the fire roads started to get ugly. We had a great time and going early definitely paid off.
