I found a new use for my bike's battery-operated headlights... I knew it would be pitch dark when I left the office tonight, but I didn't know that the parking lot lights were apparently not set back for daylight savings time change, so it was absolutely 100% full on dark at the bike rack. I used one of my PDW Dreadnaughts as a makeshift flashlight to get the bike unlocked and prepped, then put it on the handlebar for the ride.

I had an aggressive SUV pass this morning, which is not normal for Springpatch, so I chalked it up to Monday morning blues on the driver's part. Other than that and a little confusion/who's-turn-is-it? at a 4 way Stop, both rides were really nice today, no wind at all.

Do any of you guys grow beards specifically for winter riding? Is it worth the itch?
