23F with stiff headwind, still some snow and ice on the MUP but mostly cleared. The spots that weren't had fresh snow on top of the ice so no traction problems.

I woke up tired this morning and groused to myself about getting outta bed to ride. A few minutes into the ride I passed a guy I know who lives near me, rides every day, and is 72 years old. His commute is shorter than mine (about 8 miles each way) and he doesn't always ride home (has co-workers who takes him), but he's still working full time at 72 (by choice) and riding all year round. When I passed him he was smiling. He's 20 years older than me - I stopped complaining
