I almost wiped out on the MUP on the way home last night. A group of kids were standing around, taking up the whole route. I gave them a honk, but even though I was slowing down a fair bit, the one by the edge accidentally (I assume) let his skateboard get away from him. I veered around it, but my rear tire went off the edge of the MUP into the wet grass. I did a nice rear end skid, but recovered and kept going. Thought about stopping, but usually kids that age aren't going to get it anyway.

I wimped out this morning and drove in when the weather forecaster started talking about freezing fog and possible icy patches on the roads.
