I'm a week back into daily rides after 6 weeks off; my son broke his ankle and needed to be driven to school (long walk to the bus stop).
I'll tell ya, I was pretty slow the first few days. I'm getting better but I think it'll be a few weeks before I feel back on top of it again.
I switched out my studs when I started up again, it was > 50*F then. Since then it's been well below freezing in the mornings. I keep thinking I might have to put them back on again, on the 2 day forecast, but so far I've been dodging bullets; it's been warming back up and raining on any snow, melting it. It's supposed to be 50 again today but snowing tomorrow afternoon, but mixed with rain so I'm not sweating it.
I've seen a lot of deer in the morning the last few days. Coming in around 5:30 AM.
