Bikes: 1940s Fothergill, 1959 Allegro Special, 1963? Claud Butler Olympic Sprint, Lambert 'Clubman', 1974 Fuji "the Ace", 1976 Holdsworth 650b conversion rando bike, 1983 Trek 720 tourer, 1984 Counterpoint Opus II, 1993 Basso Gap, 2010 Downtube 8h, and...

My thermometer said 12°. Strava says it was 9°. Whatever, it was cold. Could be worse.

I live on a pretty busy road. In fact it's a state highway. So looking out my window and seeing asphalt with cars moving at near normal speeds late yesterday, I got an unrealistic idea of road conditions. Doh! Even so, I got up early and left the house five minutes earlier than usual this morning.

Well, the roads went from adequately plowed to poorly plowed to not plowed at all. There were a few spots where I could not ride, had to walk it.

But miraculously the maintenance crew had done a great job shoveling out the bike lockers. That's a first.
