We're forecast to have rain, then freezing rain, then ice pellets and sleet starting tomorrow morning, so I took advantage of a couple of free hours this afternoon to drive over to a small local lake and ride the roads around it a bit. Those rural roads around the lake were pretty much deserted, so no one could hear me wheezing. Not a long ride*, but incrementally a bit longer than last time. At least I didn't have to call my wife to bring the truck (I already had it with me ). It was a severely clear 55F day and just nice to be out. At least no punctures this time.

* There's something almost ludicrous about calling anything in single digits "long" (6.3 miles), but I'll get there. One day.
