Plus a wool Surley jersey. That, I wear when it's much below freezing. Normal(er) weather-B.D.U. pants (black), wicking tshirt, old wool crewneck from Sears, jacket half of a Field and Stream rainsuit from Dick's. On my feetses are two pair of wool socks and Answer Kasmir winter shoes. They'd be my Sorels, but I need cleats for fixed gear which is about all I rede these days. Lizard Skins winter glove the Mrs. got me for Exmess, a cheipie balaclava from some bike/ski shop and my trusty Giro Transfer helmet. Obviously, Style Man I'm not. But it works.

More deer than you can shake a stick at, and I bet you could harvest one with a Twinkie and a ball peen hammer. Got black bear though. And coyotes if you go alittle farther west. Wild turkey (the bird, not the Bourbon, though it's my drink of choice) abound. More common to see 'em in the warmer months, but their tracks been seen in the snow lately. Fuck, a blizzard's coming tomorrow morning. I might just take a vacation day and ride until it's time to gas up the snowblower. No wolves oot my way, eh.

Seriously, met one yesterday on the walk home from work. Besides, they are just as scared of an SS 29er as most freeriders are.
