When spring comes in a month or so (hopefully) I will miss the challenge of riding in difficult conditions.
I will also miss the element of surprise, wondering how the conditions will be on the way home or the next day.
I will miss watching the snowplows with my 2 yo daughter on our way to the daycare in the mornings (she really likes the heavy machinery).
But most of all I will miss riding my beloved Nokians and listening to the sweet sound of carbide studs tearing into an iced road.
I will not miss the horrible noise when riding the studded tyres on dry asphalt.
I will not miss it when the ski goggles (or other vital piece of equipment) are at home but I'm at work and I would really, really need them.
