So, the other day I finally tried mountain biking in the snow. The first thing that has to go next time is step-in pedals. They immediately turn to ice balls so that I cannot click in or have anything to step on. I also will try it in less than 6 - 8 inches of snow!
Yep, six months after Dale fell in Mercer County Park, I fell in exactly the same place!
Definitely something mysterious going on here.
