Back when I made my personal commitment to commute by bike throughout the winter, getting through January was my biggest fear.

In the winter months Flume Trail Bikes becomes the Spooner Lake Cross Country Ski Lodge. Cross country skiing is a great winter compliment to summer time cross country mountain biking. You get some exercise climbing the hills, you get to coast down the hills, and you even get to explore some of the same trails [...]
