An auspicious start to 2013 commuting... 6F, -4F with the windchill - a new personal record. But, it was clear and once the sun came up quite pretty. More importantly, I can't use the MUP because of recent snowfalls. The city sort of clears it but do more harm than good. What's left is ice and while I'd be ok riding on the ice, it's like riding a washboarded street - I gave up and hit the streets. I'll probably have to stick with street riding for at least another week until it gets warm enough to melt the ice. Happy New Year folks!
update: ride home sucked! Tried to find less busy streets and ended up on an ice covered side street. Even though air temp was only 19F the sun had melted the top sheet of ice and down I went. Fortunately, other than a bruised elbow the only thing damaged was my pride - good thing it was a side street so no one saw... I think
