Met up with a fellow commuter on the way in to work this morning. We'd met virtually through a local cycling blog and he wanted to ride my snow-forced alternate commute route w/ me since he hadn't been that way before. It was nice to have the company, even though I normally enjoy my 30 or so minutes of calm and alone-ness. The ride was cool and overcast (temps in the 30s), but at least it wasn't raining hard like last night when I got pretty sopping wet.

I am hearing rumors that the MUP I usually ride for most of the way to work is mostly passable again following the snows. Of course, that's thanks only to Mother Nature, not human intervention as one might hope for at some point during the weeks since the snowstorm. I may have to give it a try this afternoon myself and see how it looks.
