Another Sunday, another 6-8 inches of snow. It didn't stop until late afternoon. Monday is a holiday so I won't check most of the paths until Tuesday, but I'll try to get out on my bike on Moday and check out a few.

Please send updates and reports on the conditions of other paths in Massachusetts to Doug Mink.
