First Snow Ride of the Season

Fixed a flat in preparation for my early morning ride. Mounted my new HID headlamp on my helmet and couldn't sleep all night because I was so excited to try it out. Got up at 4:30 to get ready to roll and wow it snowed! Had to regroup and change tires to my studs. Started riding a little after 5:00 am in windy snowing conditions. Just enough snow to make you pay attention to the road conditions.

The light worked great, however, I had to make a few adjustments on the angel to prevent the snowflakes from blinding me in the light. I decided to ride the short way in (15miles) since I had forgotten how much slower the riding is in the winter. Oh well, another cool ride! Can't wait to go again.
