It's nice that the season is quiet by you, so at least you don't have that FOMO and can take your time to recover at your own pace. I'm so happy for you.Runs With Pugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171128110788554302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-16682231774391776402020-10-26T13:09:31.506-05:002020-10-26T13:09:31.506-05:00There are times I've wished for a road bike, b...There are times I've wished for a road bike, but I'm glad I have the mountain bike.

I think my mountain bike tires would be fine in the snow, but I don't plan on testing that theory. I'm hoping to continue the daily biking until Thanksgiving (or to 1,000 miles).
