    To the guy peddling out of Hanscom today,

    Good Job! It's cold as ****e out there (26 according to my Pear Phone). Tall thin fellow on a white with red (expensive looking) road bike wearing a Spyder Tech jersey. Much respect.

    I was out Sunday when it was about 16. I added a pair of light ski pants over my tights. And ski goggles. It wasn't too bad. I've been sticking it out after work most of the winter---riding a MUT with lights every 150 or so yards, but decided tonight that the risk of black ice was too great to chance it.

    >>>What was he selling?<<<<

    I got your joke, prathman, but I commented here on someone's faulty use of punctuation once and almost got run out of town. Be careful. This is one of the last fairly unspoiled forums around. Sarcasm is only funny if the person on the receiving end doesn't take him/herself too seriously, as many cyclists do.

    I was typing on an iPhone. I thought I did OK. No offense was taken!
