Out in the Cold

It's been a harsh winter so far. I haven't been cycling so much. I get out when I can. Now that work is 6 miles away, I changed my standards for cycling to work. In a nutshell: the roads must likely be dry for the next 12 hours as I leave. Last time we had dry roads, it was 5 degrees fahrenheit! So I grew an ice beard over 6 miles of cycling. I enjoyed it.

 No real problems with motorists lately. Maybe this is due to large problems (see previous posts) afflicting me of late...

I do walk more. I did get catcalls from a group of teens near the high school. Not a problem.

Would be nice if the tobacco companies invented and sold only cigarettes whose butts would bounce back off the ground and into the car from which they were thrown.
