What a day! Ride Report 3/27/14
Update 3/28/14: As of 7AM we have 2 inches of fresh snow, and now we’re having a mixture of snow and sleet. It will eventually turn over to rain, but nowhere near enough to wipe us out. Come up and ride this weekend! We didn’t build Rome in a day and it’s not going to […]
