Good to hear!
@berner, it's nice to see your name show up too!

I've been riding my commute maybe two or three days a week, limited by weather and whether, specifically whether I have some commitment that makes it impractical. Today was, shall we say, interesting. A bit like x-c skiing at Bretton Woods where you come out of the woods at the end of the day and have to cross the golf course into a 30mph headwind at 5 below zero. Okay, maybe not quite that bad but pretty challenging nevertheless. Plus I had a flat this morning. Ever tired changing a tube in 30 degree weather when you fingers are numb? That's what makes us stronger! And gives us something to talk about over a good beer in front of a warm fire.
