I got about 4 inches but it’s freezing rain now. Treacherous. Going to wait until later to shovel, keep the freezing rain off the paved surfaces.

This storm was woefully disappointing

the next trick will be convincing her to let me keep the revolt as the bike to have at the other house

They just don't think rationally so it's hard to make them understand our needs. :rolleyes:

For the doctors here. My wife is two months pregnant, and recently has started to really get worried about covid. She’s worried if she gets covid it could cause issues with the pregnancy. I don’t know how to ease her anxiety. I wear a mask at work, but I cannot not go to work.

Agree. Sneaky.

Risk for badness quite low even with pregnancy if vaxxed/boosted.

Same, only with snow on the ground and smaller buildings.

Remember the old TV commercial where the guy painting the football field spells "Chiefs" "Chefs"? I think it was for Southwest Airlines.

Well...Guys last name is spelled "Esch", not "Ecsh."

No wonder they lost like they did. Can't even get their names right.

When this weather system passed through the Midwest, it petered out about a county or two away from us and we only got a couple inches. After Illinois, it went berserk again. You’re welcome, TN, NC, SC, etc.

lol no. I moved here to get away from this crap. I also can't really get the bikes too dirty anymore since I keep them in the living room. Those are my excuses anyways.

Rent is high and the apartment is small but living in a historic district is pretty lovely.

The shop I was going to pick it up from sold it while I was still suffering from indecisiveness.

I did however, order some Zipp 303S for the bike I don’t yet have… my wife is going to love that

Bummer. I wish I could say I could try and help you out but I think our entire Cervelo allocation for this year is a single Aspero :rolleyes:
