Sometimes It Snows In October/I Ain't Goin Out Like That

Well, I guess it hadn't happened since the 1800's, but we got 3 inches of snow in NYC in October! Nothing good about it. Couldn't go snowboarding. Bad for business. Bad for riding streets and trails. West Milford, NJ got a whopping 19 inches! Yep, the home of our favorite Jungle Habitat. I guess we're not going there til it thaws. I didn't care how much it snowed, I was goin' out to ride the trails today. I had to. LI didn't get snow, just rain, so I headed out to Stillwell in Syosset. The Sos was having a block party so I figured I could spin at least 10 miles of trail before I went over there to check it out. After the snowy day and night and cold temps I was ready for a cold ride, but it was actually beautiful and sunny in the mid 40's. Winter shoes, long sleeves top and bottom, thermal vest...done. Toasty and perfect. I raged the trail like a stealthy beast to the soundtrack of Cypress Hill. It was a lil' soft in a few spots, but otherwise superb. The Sos block party was in full swing when I got there. Kids havin' fun, adults hangin' out. I visited the catering/food truck for a delicious angus burger and pommes frites, yum! Then, I was off to NYC to deliver Baby Blue to the BK. A great day, in my new life. Gotta ride again tomorrow....Halloween! Boo!
