29° with 21 mph winds ... good times. Only made it 6 miles into the wind before I broke a spoke on the rear. I think I need to get it retensioned or step up to a higher spoke count rear wheel :/

Sorry in advance for the two click to see each pic linking.

I wish we had just a touch of snow like you have there. That would be nice.
I've been out two days in a row now but the snow plows have yet to clear a path so the road is pretty usless and the ditch is 5 feet deep.
Anyone else find their pedals hitting the sides of the ruts?
