Went down to the rifle range for Vets day, 30 miles round trip. The Rat did good until I got out of the midtown area and started hitting heavy chop. The sidewalks get worse as you go south, and bike lanes disappear. There's also a lot of filty street ice chunks that are tossed up by the snowplows. They're hard as rocks and range from small chunks to chunks weighing about fifty pounds. The cruiser's inherent limitations showed themselves, and I sure would have liked a mountain bike about then to get over and around them. But I made it, which is the main point.
