Fingers crossed for a ride tomorrow if it's rideable!

Just back and it's fairly rideable. Most fireroads have had a forestry vehicle down them and the tracks are compacted & frozen so as long as you stick to them you can ride. It's a quick stop as soon as you stray out of them though.

We stuck to descents in the trees and they were just about rideable, the snow is a bit thinner under the trees and still powdery.

It's slow going though so don't expect to be racking up the miles!

Did you try Transmission or Section 13?

No, stuck to stuff in the trees, I doubt either of those would be rideable.
