I am UNSTOPPABLE

OK, not really, but Oregon/the PNW has been having some very unusual weather this weekend. I just sold my car a few weeks ago, and in the back of my mind I had the niggling voice of doubt telling me that I would be screwed if it snowed. (My trusty 1994 Nissan Sentra could drive circles around just about anything in the snow, it was great.)

Welp, during my Thursday night/Friday morning shift, the skies opened up and Jack Frost took a huge dump on the entire city. I figured I'd have to give up and just hike in to work (I live just under 3 mi/5k away) but I decided to soldier on and see if I could do it on my bike. And I did!

This is my first time riding in the snow:

This is the coldest commute so far, -22C/-9F, at about 0330 Sunday morning.
