Sure, what kind of details are you looking for?

yeah i had some warm rain here too. turned the 6 - 8 inches of hard pack snow into 6 inches of dirt slushie. it only took an hour to shovel out the car and pickup from the parking lot behind the apartment this morning.
On a positive note, I've heard shoveling snow is good cardio. |

The MN Longboard Crew ran the Cannon Valley Trail on Sunday. A great turn out in riders and weather. If you are ever in the area put this trail on your must-do list. A 20 mile sweet surface from Cannon Falls to Red Wing.

Nice! Sorry I missed it, love that trail ... I'll be hitting it up again with some friends this month looks like.
How crowded was it for you guys? |

I plan to write up a detailed log of our ride. But I too know the trail can get busy. We were a little late getting started from our posted 9am start time but even with the delay we had minimal bike traffic on this particular Sunday morning.
There was discussion in the group about making the next run down the trail a Race!
Look for a discussion of the CannonBall Run (the race) on the forums. |

Cool! Were there many dedicated pumpers in the mix, or mostly pushers?
Who made it in first and in how long?
Thanks for the pics, motivating me for a return soon! |

Those trail shots look rad, what a great time!
I like the looooooong board (Joe's) reminds me of the JAM silverback?
