Rod,

OK I'll elaborate.
About 30% of the trail had a layer of ice. The ice was mostly soft and crushed under the tires and wobbles were minor. For the first few minutes when I needed to slow down I coasted with one foot near the ground as sort of a three point stance. We did get more comfortable, admired the weather and really enjoyed the stretches of bare pavement. Bikes accounted for about half the traffic. The coffee/bike shop was bustling with bikers. About 1/2 had fenders and 1/3 had studded tires. We rode back via roads figuring it would be embarassing to fall on ice but socially acceptable to get whacked by a car. Of course I'm just joking....but we did ride back on the road.

Nice to get out.
