Not sure how cold it was this AM but I hit a small patch of black ice about 1/2 mile from work, the Centurion drifted sideways a bit but didn't dump me. By lunch time, it was 42F & the streets were drying out so rode home, switched bikes & rode back in the sun on my Motobecane Grand Jubilee. Her goldtone candy red frame & bare wheels really looked swell next to the 2 muddy bikes parked by our supply room (they ride farther than we do & really need a bath). It's supposed to rain again starting tonight so I prepped the Centurion for tomorrow's ride when I got home. Don
