No snow on the roads this morning, so off to work by bike I go. West side is all clear but definitely chilly. Cross the 1/3rd mark East bound and the roads are dusted. Now half way and it's getting slippery with icy patches. Just about 2/3rds now, make a slow turn and my bike and I are sliding down the road. We pick ourselves up and away we go. It's just pride that's hurt. Roads slushed up a bit for the rest of the ride to work and no more indecencies. Damn I felt so alive. After all these years of commuting in three different states I can still have these great moments. WOW

Road bike+snow+ice+chill+slush=skill training completed.

Good luck to all. Please have a moment for yourself and enjoy.
