February 3rd? Put some socks on dammit! You're probably in Chicago.

Congratulations oboeterry! Over Christmas and New Year's I went to Florida and finally got a real chance to ride mine. I got in about 400 miles and am really happy with the bike. In the suitcase with a few tools and pump it weighed 44 lbs, well under the airlines 50 lbs limit.

Bike Friday sent me a pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file of how to adjust the drop outs. Unfortunately it's just over Bike Forums file size limit so I'll try to email you a copy or find some other way of posting it here. One little tool you'll need to get is a chain ring bolt wrench (see picture). In an emergency, a dime (both US and Canadian) will work on three of them. But the forth is so close to the hub that there's no room for a dime to fit in. That's where that wrench comes in handy. Also be careful when adjusting because it tightens the chain real fast.
