Frost Heaves, if you are not from the area you might think this is a politician running for the school board, considering the number of signs stuck into the side of the road with "his" name.  In addition to being a <a href="http://www.vermontfrostheaves.com/">basketball team from VT</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost_heaving">Frost Heaves</a> are cracks and bumps in the road that have resulted from the freeze thaw conditions of spring.

Sometimes the bumps can be fun, but where there are more cracks than pavement, it can be annoying and dangerous. To ride these moguls sit light in your seat, feet firmly planted on the pegs ready to dance with the bike. I've never ridden a horse, but I imagine it's something like that.  If you're riding a cruiser with feet forward, good luck to you, I don't know how you do it!<br />

March Ride Report

Motorcycling in New Hampshire, in March is madness. A good kind of madness mind you, but mad none the less.

Frost Heaves, if you are not from the area you might think this is a politician running for the school board, considering the number of signs stuck into the side of the road with "his" name. In addition to being a basketball team from VT Frost Heaves are cracks and bumps in the road that have resulted from the freeze thaw conditions of spring. See also washboard.

Sometimes the bumps can be fun, but where there are more cracks than pavement, it can be annoying and dangerous. To ride these moguls sit light in your seat, feet firmly planted on the pegs ready to dance with the bike. I've never ridden a horse, but I imagine it's something like that. If you're riding a cruiser with feet forward, good luck to you, I don't know how you do it!

Here is a little video I put together from yesterday's ride.
