Last nights fog turned to frost/ice everywhere, even on the train platform. This riding was dicey especially with the folder. Made it with no major problems, just some slipping here and there. My question: Anyone ride early-6ish this morning in Baltimore. Was it as icy as Beltsville? Anyone scrape their windshield? Was I clueless or was there a real temp difference between the 2 cities?
+1; rode at 5:15am
