I've got a gig tonight, but otherwise I'm glad to hear about this. Doesn't it conflict with Risk night, though?

It's been 50 degrees for the past few days. pretty much everything in the sun is melted.

Of course the remaining wet stuff freezes up at night, but don't worry, it's "grippy ice".

that's why I never spent much time in Cambridge. too sketchy for me, which is why I preferred the safety of Mission Hill.

Alexi

Guy's name was Brendan, pretty sure. He was riding a Motobecane (conversion?), but can't say what he may have been on up there.
