Based on the off-road performance of the Volvo wagon at Tasker's last week, I think I could tackle the jeep trails at the Cove with it :harhar:

I'll be in Winchester hanging out with some friends, working on bikes and trailers, and drinking.

Now that is the best plan I can think of for this miserable cold weather :freakey:

Jay, I'm flexible so YOU can pick the time, etc. but somewhere around 9:00 to 10:00 at Cove would certainly work.

Forecast is getting BETTER - High 42 degrees and now only 60% chance of PM precip.

Who else is IN???
Sam,

10 sounds good; its about 2.5 hours for me so that gives me some time and a chance for it to warm up.

You will have to be patient with me as I want a chance to try the spikes and see how they hold up on the rocks; but then I will probably switch tire sets as the spikes will be over-kill...

See ya then.

You two guys are welcome to come ride the farm Saturday, those rocks at the Cove will make a mess of your screws Jay.
I have some firewood to gather in the morning so I will be there for a little while anyhow.
You can at least enjoy your screws/spikes at the farm.

Mike,

Thanks! That would be great! I have a little score to settle with the frozen hill behind the shop. We will see you around 10'. Looking forward to it. :roost:

The J-Man with the New Custom Screw/Spikes was setting an impressive pace through the 4 to 6 inches of firm snow today!

The OFG was shortcutting the little loops at every opportunity and still couldn't keep up. :shrug:
I think Jay probably rode about twice as many miles as the OFG. :lol2:

The riding was challenging - particularly on the second lap or when following because the snow was firm enough for the ruts we made to try to catch or turn the front wheel when crossing or riding in them.

BUT it was FUN and the OFG got some arm exercise.

I'll let J give the detailed SCREW report but I'd say they worked good!

THANK YOU - BOOM BOOM

Sam hope you remembered to make a card and flower stop on your way home or QOFE will be having you test out how well your garage heater works.
