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...

Lots of snowmelt yesterday, water running over the roads everywhere as it got dark, and then the temperature dropped to 20 F overnight. So needless to say I was pretty worried about black ice this morning! But there wasn't much, and fortunately I ride to the station before there's much traffic, so I was able to ride around the icy patches.

20F is really cold. I'm so tired of the cold that I took the bar mitts off my bike a few days ago. This was not a clever move.
