a little damp but relatively warm on the way in today.

on the way home I upped the effort a couple of notches just to get home a little quicker but these studded snows (worth their weight in gold on an icy snowy night) definitely make the commute a little more of a workout psychologically as well as physically on a night when I could have easily ridden with regular tires.

the sound of the studded snows is like frying bacon, Kellogg's Rice Crispies, a crackling fire, a radio not tuned to any particular station...
