17F this morning, clear, light northwesterly headwind. Most of the roads have dried up now. Last night I hit black ice on a bridge at 14mph and sure was glad to have the studs on as I could feel a little shimmy going on. I will remember to slow down from now on and try to keep it at around 10mph to give the studs a chance to stick to the ice surfaces. Darn coyotes were creeping me out again. They seem to be afraid of me though.
