Mountain Biking in the Snow?Yes you can do it, but you have to stay on the packed areas
Mountain Biking in the Snow?Yes you can do it, but you have to stay on the packed areas. As soon as you veer off into the deeper snow you lose it. The good news is that if you do fall at least you hit a nice soft bed of fluffy snow. Ice is a different story. I saw a big patch of ice and thought maybe if I just coast over it keeping my wheels straight I could glide to the safe zone, but it didn’t work out that way. As soon as I hit the ice the bike crashed to the ground without the fluffy snow to break the fall. The good news there is at least you can see the ice before you get to it. I saw the ice coming and actually considered walking the bike past the patch of ice. Unfortunately I made the wrong choice. I wasn’t hurt, but it was not a pleasant experience, and I won’t try that one again! All of these pictures were taken with my iphone so the quality isn’t nearly as good as the pictures taken with my Nikon, but they’re plenty good enough to get the point across. -- source link
