31F, and I was determined to ride one day this week, probably a mistake! On drive home yesterday I tried to check the mup in several places and most looked clear except for the first 3-4 miles from my house which this morning turned out to be impassable. No problem, switched to street which, while clear, is heavily traveled but more scary than dangerous... I think?!

The next 3/10 of a mile were horrible - neighborhoods still not plowed after snowpocolypse. While tracking in the one rideable car tire track a cop road up behind me and started honking. I stopped, walked bike out of center and as he drove by I could hear him yelling at me. I wish I'd had the presence of mind to get his car number - what an *******. Finally got to the fairly clear part of mup - so that and downtown streets made for decent last 7 miles. With all that, it felt great to be back on the bike (that's nuts, I know)
