I bought a new balaclava over the weekend. For what I paid for it, I was expecting it to be awesome. It is not awesome, but it is satisfactory. I can layer my old fleece turtle fur over it.

The ride itself was also satisfactory, but not awesome. I could not get going for anything! (I think that's my baseline before about 0600) I found out that my taillight had burned out, threw a Knog Frog on there, and when I got to work, it was gone. Damn. I guess I'm going unlit on the way home, at least I have my safety vest.
