a day of firsts for me. first commute in the rain and holy **** did i get wet, the race blades worked great as fenders, but i need something for my feet and something for my head. and the second first was the ****ing freezing ride home. 45 degrees, not nice, not nice at all.

but that aside the rides were magnificent. cold, crisp, screaming excitement, chirping birds, and splashing in puddles.
