I really want to do this here in Colorado. Did you use studded tires?

@drbroccoli Maxxis Wetscream, 2 bars pressure insinde.

@emericstonedangelz That's such good news. I have maxxis swampthings, which are quite similar. I used to be dreaded the winter as the end of mtb season, but now it seems like a new beginning. Have you ever tried doing anything more technical? Like narrow trails with rock gardens? That's more of what I have here.

Thanks!

@drbroccoli well i rode my rmx down a mountain slope at night without lights and knowing the slope down to the valley, i was still faster than my friends on snowboards. the bike had good grip, except icy parts, i just crashed 3 times. the wetscreams did a got job in corners, fast straight line, even bumpy sections with soft snow.

Let's try rock and roots this winter and chat about this, ok? ;) i want to try how the Intense intruder tires does with its "cold" sticky rubber.

Has anybody tried this at night, you dont need lights, the snow creates enough to see, best done on your own late at night. All you can hear is nature and of course the bike going thru the snow. Surrrrrreal..!!!

@emericstonedangelz Would you say that a long travel bike is necessary? I'll be riding a 120mm hardtail. I'm normally good a working the bike on sketchy terrain, but I'm concerned that something concealed by snow will catch me off guard, not that falling will be a big deal. I talked to some guys at the bike shop and they say my tires are amazing in snow.

If you go fast enough do you glide over powder?

Anyway, I'll keep you posted.

@burtonmozart Even if this were entirely true, it doens't matter. Some people find the idea of biking in snow to be fun. Others would prefer to ski. Or snowboard. Or simply walk.
