I debated bike vs. bus this morning as the roads looked a bit messy, but promises of it "tapering off towards afternoon" made the bike win out. At least schools were closed so there was less traffic.

This was definitely my most challenging ride, but the worst thing that happened were some close-call skids in a few sections.

I did get a couple of honks from people behind me who didn't want to take the opportunity to take their SUVs out of the tire tracks/change lanes for 10 seconds to pass me. And someone yelled something - could have been good or bad. Who can tell? Nothing to do but hold your line and keep going.
