A week ago I was driving up to Ithaca NY and passing through a some village up there I saw a procession of about 8 guys on sleds waiting next to a train station, I guess to hit a local trail or something. Never saw that many riders in 1 place before other than races on TV....they were all fully decked out in kit too.
Somehow we just skipped February and most of March. It's regularly in the high 60's and low 70's for a couple weeks here.
