Ugh. We got about 6" of snow on Saturday and I decided to try riding this morning. (City doesn't plow the rail trail.)

Because it has been very cold, the snow hasn't had a chance to sublimate and/or pack down. As a result, it was like riding through sand. I was wobbly and just not having a good time.

Bailed onto a street and headed up to a bus stop. Had to wait about 10 minutes for the next bus to show up, and it was in the single digits (F). I had plenty of leftover heat so I didn't get cold standing there. Put the bike on the bus's bike rack and had an otherwise nice ride in to work.

Guess I'm off the bike again until things clear up a little. Bike will sit here in my cube until then.
