Was a good ride in this morning around 22F. Have been using the balaklava first time this season starting yesterday. I had last week off on vacation so only rode two days from home. Was nice to see some of my old routes that I usually don't get to do often anymore. I got bronchitis starting last Friday. Went to the doc over the weekend and have been taking antibiotic (azithromycin) since then. Almost done with one pill left. I hope to kick it but had no luck with the same med over two years ago. I feel better (and felt good this morning). So I think its on its way out. Crossing fingers...

Edit: After I stopped at the light at 145th St and St Nicholas Ave, a guy with shorts (!) pulled up along side me. I said, "Your're a better man than me for wearing shorts!" He replied that he could not leave the bike alone today. Also said that "I see you couldn't either." Either he's a bad ass or he can't feel anything in his legs. I know that the legs don;t need to be covered up as much as the core. But shorts in 22F might be pushing it a bit, no?
