It's been dissapointing lately. I did only a quarter of the commute on bike the last two days because of heavier lake-effect snow that wasn't cleaned coupled with auto traffic concerns. I'm grateful that at least the last quarter is relatively safe, and serves as a continued "testing ground" for getting better at riding on snow and ice. I probably should have run at low pressure today to get more traction, but by the time I realized that I had about a half-mile left so I didn't bother. My first commute of the year was full though, and my coldest yet at around -10 F windchill, so that bit of "growth" in my ability is exciting.

cycling > medicine
