Today I rode to the designated meeting point to get a ride in the station's 4x4. Overnight snows at higher elevations left roads in the south hills too treacherous for anyone without a metal cage protecting them from other vehicles. I understand there was some national news coverage showing a garbage truck sliding down a hill here in Eugene.

Yesterday I rode up in the snow, but had to shoulder the bike the last 1/3 mile on the station's steep driveway.
