I had a similar ride today... two of my homies, the open road, crisp fall air and lots of sunshine.

Can't complain.

You only can't complain because you know that -15C is coming!

At the upper-right side of the screen, above the Quick Search box, is "Your Control Panel." Click that, then go into "Edit Options," and you can chose an image, called an "avatar," near the bottom.

Gack! Light Snow, sure (as long as you promise not to be too hard!), how about some laps around Gilles Villeneuve?
