Bike looks spiffy!
FYI, I bagged on the bike commute today, but I went for a run on the Greenway before work so I can still report on conditions. My salt had an effect! Too bad I ran out of it. The footbridge over the highway was clear and part of the ramp (where I ran out is where it gets ugly again). The hill it still a little sketchy, but less so (yay for warm temps?). I have to wonder how effective salt would be on a steep slope like that? Would it simply roll down off the ice? Dunno. Any serious rain today should wipe the rest.
We should start an "Adopt a Greenway" program like the "adopt a highway" programs. A little community action to keep the Greenway usable. It's something I've thought about for years. We could call ourselves the "Greenway Guerilla".
BTW, rock salt is heavy. I found this out recently: one can only carry so much in bags on the handlebars! I'll bet your panniers could hold a good deal of it.
