Bikes: Still have a few left!

Today was my first day commuting since the snow. 40F this morning, 44F this afternoon. It was great to be riding again: conditions were not great due to lots of gravel & sand in the bike lanes & also still a lot of snow piled up on the shoulders & out into the bike lanes & some intersections. About 1/2 mile from work, fellow in a mid 70s Chevy pickup leaned on his horn as he passed me. I was taking my share of the car lane due to snow & slush in the bike lane. No other traffic at 6:15 AM & this is a 4 lane road plus 2 way centerlane for turns. I am well lit & wear a reflective vest so it wasn't like I suddenly appeared in front of him wearing dark clothing. Don
