    Closer to 2-1/2 cords when I look a little closer, but
    Normal winter so far.
    Couple colder than norm periods & a couple higher than normal periods, all evens out.
    Need more snow, been cold with no snow , frost is going deep.

    Dave, you have to be right. Frost going deep with no snow cover. Makes for much mud in the spring. Do you have mud tires for that bike?
