Met David in Talent. Took Valley View back to Ashland including Wilson Road, E-Nevada and Pompadore. Then back the bikepath to Suncrest and out Payne road and David Lane. Fern Valley to the bikepath to S Stage. Then I came back via Vories and Colver. Some sun temps in the mid 40s.

Started up the hill but too much snow. Headed out the bikepath and then up Suncrest where it started sleeting on me.

Nice day. The sun was warm and the trails are still frozen. Took Toothpick all the way down to Tolman and back up again. White Rabbit had a few muddy spots but mostly in good shape.

Cold. The slush that gave me such a hard time on Saturday was now ice which was much easier to ride over.

Needed 39 miles to make 3000 for the year. Not a bad day for a road ride, cold by mostly dry. Ran into David's gang on South Stage and rode with them over Carpenter Hill and Pioneer. Update: Found a logic flaw in the code - it wasn't counting last new year's day ride. The actual total for 2007 is 3032.
