It was very cold in Burlington, Ontario yesterday for my first commute. I dressed well and it was great for the ride in. On the way home, I got a flat.... I don't think I called my wife all year last year to help me out (commuting every day) and this year, on my first commute - it was so cold that I didn't bother try changing my tire. I glad I didn't too as it was a hard to find very small piece of wire stuck in the tire. So - I don't have to worry about holding off calling my wife or worrying about not talking about flats as I have accomplished both on my first official commute!! WooHoo. I suppose it will only get better. Ride in today was equally cold but I still enjoyed it.
