My first day commuting in almost three weeks, ahhhh, that feels soooo gooooooooddd.
I was on vacation for two weeks (didnt have my bike ), and then the university was closed for the holidays so I didnt have to commute in. It's nice getting off the trainer and back outside. Even this nasty cold I've had didn't bother me much.

It was nice, 36 some degrees, clear, no snow on the ground yet here in mid Michigan. I've been tempted to switch over to the slicks, but everytime I think about it, the weather guy talks about black ice. Oh well, the studded tires aren't that bad
