Forecast is for continued cold, wind and sun.

Taking a different route home tonight: stopping by the home of a craigslist seller who is clearing out a bunch of old bike gear.
Here are a couple of lake ice photos from Friday's commute.

The cold weather continues here in WI, with rain/snow mix expected this week.

I'm driving today and tomorrow due to some work-related errands that require a car. We'll see if my "extreme commuting" urge kicks in later this week.

From that craigslist seller last week, I got two useful things for $5 total - a tire pressure gauge and an underseat bag.
