I should have already gotten it but I had the crud last week and wanted to wait until not sick. I can get scheduled for it because I work for a doctor. So yes, I will have been vaccinated by the next time I see you guys.

It appears that the last week of April was the planned date for the canceled Texas ride last year.

MM and I went to Suches and rode around the area as a replacement ride. The daytime temps were in the 60-70's....the overnight temps were in the high 30's to low 40's!

So......it does appear the end of April is about the soonest we can start on planning for any multi day rides.

No snow shoes required.

This winter has been relatively free of any snow and we have had less than an inch........the normal for February is 6.5 inches. There has only been one snow that has covered the grass. There has not been a lot of sun and so far we have not gotten below 20 that I am aware of. In a normal year we would have been down below 10 degrees for a few days in February.......sometimes we get below zero. The coldest I have ever witnessed was 25 below on a Saturday - and I was working outside surveying job on that day!

No, at that temperature the air is dry, the snow is fluffy and makes scrunchy/squeaky noises when you walk in it. The snow is so frozen it doesn't pack or stick to anything.

Thankfully we were taking topo of a large hillside and I was moving around giving them shots in a 25' grid - I got to move around while the instrument man was standing in one spot! Today with electronic total stations it is far easier and faster. Just before I retired the company bought a drone that can fly around and do the same thing the 3 of us were doing manually.
