Cycling into the sunset

The other day when I got done at working at the bike shop, i went for a evening bike ride on the snowmobile trails.  The sun was just starting to go down, and the sun was beaming across the snow and it looked like the snow was blue because of the sunset.  It was about 38 degrees out and the wind wasn't too bad.  I don't mind biking in the winter, especially when the temp. is warm and the winds are low. I would have to say i like summer a lot better, but oh well.  In the winter time you can see the snow crystals sparkle in the sunlight, and the deer and the squirrel tracks, and the ever once and awhile owl wing imprints from grabbing a mouse or mole.  
In the winter you can walk, bike or drive out onto the lake and ice fish or just bike around on the ice.  With the ice and snow you can use studded tyres and skid around for fun.  You can make snow balls and throw them at each other.  You can also make snowmen as well.
When i have the chance to bike during a sunset, i will.  Even if it means that i get home in the dark, but my light will guide me home.  When i look out my window in the morning and see all the snow on the ground and feel how cold the window from the below freezing air, I automatically think, i don't want to go out in this, but than i think this is no different than when i was out in this yesterday, but the one thing i always remember.  Spring will be here in no time at all.  


Keep on Biking....
