LowCel: Hope your dad does ok. If you need an online second opinion, PM me.

To the rest of the gang, it's about 10 degrees out now but luckily I have an organized club ride that won't start until noon, with temps up to a balmy 18F. The back streets are still covered with snow/slush/ice but I've picked a route that should avoid this (I am hoping).

I will be back later to collect my HTFU points.
