Finally back on the road bike, haven't ridden it since my 12/19 Friday morning commute. Cool and very damp this morning, but not raining. 37 deg. F, streets still wet from the rain we had all weekend. Good thing I still had the fenders on the bike. I was dressed pretty well. I could tell that many people are still off work and school. In 15.5 miles I had a grand total of 8 cars overtake me.

I'm leaving the office early on Wednesday, and I might try to bike commute every day this week until then. That would put me over 400 miles for December, a far cry from barely getting in 100 miles in December last year.

And for when it really gets cold, like in the 20's, I think I may have finally figured out my face gear. I picked up one of these "UltraClavas" the other day, which has mouth and nose slots for breathing, and then some inexpensive ski goggles that will hopefully keep out my exhaled breath and not fog up like glasses do when my mouth and nose are covered. Might get to try them out Wednesday morning.
