Still just riding the Monark pretty much everyday so far this winter
MattiThundrrr
Rattus All Terrainus
Ditto for Canada
However, it seems we have a bit more than you, it was already up to my knees, and we're predicted to get another 40+ cm (16 more inches!) over the weekend,
The kids and I would love to have snow like that!
Here it only was about 10-15 cm in the last two days and it will probably be gone again on Monday or Tuesday.

32c/90f on the coast today and 25km on the FastRoad SL1. The water bottle got a workout.
Beautiful bike!
HOLY COW! And here I am freaking out about getting 10 inches of snow in Tulsa, Oklahoma!
My daughter needed to draw something mechanical for an art class. So we posed her 1938 Westfield "Bengal" in the snow for some profiles. I guess this makes it a Snow Tiger? 
The Old Bikes Club ride is dedicated to our Brother Gray Beard John in February. John was the catalyst for the formation of our merry band of misfits & loved by all! Michael went to pick him up for the ride 7 years ago but John passed some time during the night on Saturday. I am honored to be chosen as caretaker of his '41 Lincoln badged Schwinn DX. 
You probably can't see it but a beautiful portrait sitting between Blu & Barb done by @BobbyStillz that perfectly captures John's spirit.
I tried to get a good closeup of the portrait but left my phone exposed to the cold too long & died just as I hit the button. Wanted to share here because I don't know if you truly understand the talent Bobby has. Although you are miles away, we could feel your presence with us yesterday.

I miss John dearly, and yes the portrait was from me, but not drawn by me. I have put out a lot of art into the world, but this piece was done by a very talented portrait artist named 'Claire'.
I had 2 made. One for Brooke, and the other for Blu. John was an incredibly kind, compassionate, and talented man. His life, and his absence, have left an eternal impression on those who knew him.
Here are the inspiration photo and portrait.
Thanks for setting the record straight @BobbyStillz ! He is truly missed by anyone who's met him. Blessed to have him as a friend, the friends I've made because of him and one of his rides!
