I was able to get out for a ride Sunday, and I rode my bike to work today.
Yesterday got up to about 43. Today is supposed to be slightly warmer
though it was only in the low 30s on my way to work, with lots of ice to
watch out for.
Somebody else here mentioned the condition of roads. I have
After a month with lots of cold and snow and no thaws to speak of--fun if
you were running aggressive treads and studs--we're now getting a rapid
cycle of thaw/freeze that seems perfect for giving bike paths a rutted ice
surface: nasty. The roads are a marginally better bet, clear of snow and
That's one you can see from as far away as it may be deep! Best have your
swim fins and floaties on for that one!

That pot hole still looks to be completely covered in snow, Tim. I'm
surprised you could see it at all. Oh? Ahhh. I'm looking at the white of
the screen where a picture would be? Yes. I see that now. Grin.
Riding the sloppy soup of snowmelt is just an amazing pleasure! We get it

Second that! Our foray into record low temps here has produces potholes
more instantly than Carnation does breakfast. The roadway on my commute
changes in the 24 hours between my passing and is SCARY because of how it
effects the drivers, who seem more eager to avoid undercarriage damage than
It was pretty warm by the end of the ride, luckily all downhill at that
point!

True that, Patrick! This past weeks snow left me horizontal three times, twice
on the bike, once while at work. The first fall left me on my side in the pool
left from melting and high tide, at dusk, 34 degree air temperature and who
knows what water temp. My Luxos U headlight was bumped and

Aye, Tony. Snow makes an excellent teacher. It is infinitely patient,
perfectly willing to offer the same lessons over and over till I learn
them. Grin. Riding in snow gives great appreciation for why the Inuit have
over 30 words for snow. Grin. Right now, I wonder what the word for snow
