The "Nice" Fat Bike is Ready to Ride.

Yesterday was a noon-8 day at work, so after the kids were at school it was time to bike!  I feel like I need to start putting in some more saddle time in preparation for my upcoming events.

I have a lot of bikes, but currently two of them are converted over to cyclocross specific rigs so I'm really down to two choices (I know boo hoo): the Salsa Fargo or the Surly Cross Check (single).  Yesterday I opted for the Fargo...still my favorite bike I have.

Did a good chunk of the Dirt Bag I route.  Almost 3.5 hours.
Having done a hard Kettle Bell work out and lunges the previous day I was a bit tired all over.  The ride, however, felt really good and went by pretty fast.

Today is my short ("off") day at work, 9-12.  I have the Salsa Ti Mukluk all set and ready to roll.  The plan is to put a lot of saddle time in.  Going with the flow.
This is the first time I have ridden the Mukluk on anything but clean snow!  I was babying this bike, but figure I have it to ride it...so it's time to get in on.
