Three days in the rain, I was expecting a round of applause from the neighbours for rebuilding that.
First sunny day, off out on the bike.

The postal code or place name so I can look it up on Google Maps?This is about a mile from my dads house
Prairie Dog, how do you like that Norco Big Foot? I ride their Sight VLT and love it.It really depends on the weather conditions. I really hate riding in the muck and I really don’t fancy fenders though I realize that they are an absolute necessity if one wants to maintain any degree of dignity exiting the trails.
Here are a few images taken sometime around the first week of April last year while riding with a buddy on the local trails.

I love it likely just as much as you do when you’re riding the Sight which is an awesome machine in its own right. How are you liking your custom hydro dipped e-fatty? I guess I shouldn't even have to ask…Lol. Looks like the perfect ride for your hunting and ice fishing expeditions. I would have loved FS but since I only plan on riding it during the winter months, I’ll manage.Prairie Dog, how do you like that Norco Big Foot? I ride their Sight VLT and love it.
I live in a sea of fatties of every kind imaginable here in coastal SoCal. Since I can't buy another ebike — wife would just end up with it in the resulting divorce settlement — no fatties in my foreseeable future. But the thought of riding the beaches here with nothing to worry about but the occasional kraken has a lot of appeal.To be honest, I might have been the last person to own a fat bike but after watching so many of them pass by me on the trails during this past winter while I struggled on my emtb, I decided enough was enough.
Be proud of itno fatties in my foreseeable future
Why? They have a place. A lot of the fatties around here appear to function as utility bikes. As with any other kind of bike, as long as they're ridden responsibly, fine by me.Be proud of it
My point was many of those fat e-bikes are actually rubbish. Unlike the Norco! (Your divorce would be guaranteed if you bought one)Why? They have a place.

Wow, and I thought our winters up here were long. That would certainly eat into the time I spend on the road bike. With that said, we’re still in minus double-digit conditions and with another 1-2” of snow that fell over the weekend, it still feels much like it did for the greater part of January. I was planning on riding this morning but with the temperature plunging down to -26C windchill, I think I’ll wait for a couple of hours before heading out. It looks to be a bright sunny day and that’s reason enough to ride.I love my fattie. But I look at it a little differently than a lot of people. It's a tool first and a recreational bike second, so with that attitude you can't go wrong.
And with Mn winter's being 9 months long, you gotta have something to ride.
I have 4.6 Cake Eaters on it that I studded myself. I put regular studs down the center and Tri-tip on the inside and outside edges. It feels like a could climb a tree with it.
I'm excited for next month, turkey hunt in South Dakota. I'm hoping it gets me into some knarly backcountry.
Ya but not in Southern CaliforniaAnd with Mn winter's being 9 months long, you gotta have something to ride.
The new owner has spruced up the place and just put this herd in place.
