It snowed all over my bike this morning, not long after I got to work. It was very pretty, but I was glad to already be in my office, thinking about my wet seat. I hope it dries up a little. I’m not going straight home tonight, and my fenders are crappy. (New ones on the Xmas list!)
I’ve not been as alone as I have been in years past commuting in the cold, but the numbers of bikes on the racks near where I work are shrinking weekly. That there’s still bike traffic at all with gas prices going down makes me happy as a warm bike seat.
We missed doing a Halloween ride, and we haven’t gotten together in months. Are folks still riding into the winter? Anyone wanna do a short holiday ride, with warm goodies?

some weatherpeople are calling for the coldest december since 1989, so be prepared for some frigid commutes over the next few weeks.
I’m trying to ride at least 3 times per week during the cold. It’s tough getting the proper mix of layers down. Worst thing is trying to buy a cup of coffee to go at the common ground with fogged up glasses!

I love riding in the cold, but I hope it doesn’t get TOO crazy. My fenders are junk until Santa brings me new ones:)
