Cold, wet, and very very slick! It has been snowing for the past two hours, maybe an inch or two on the ground. I don't have knobby tires on my commuter yet, because it doesn't snow often, and I don't want to sacrifice speed on dry days. Anyway I came around a curve, going maybe 7mph and my front tire washed out, but I didn't go down, I counter steered and feathered the brakes, the bike straightened and I continued through the curve. It all happened very quickly and it was really just natural, I didn't have time to think about it. So that got me thinking that maybe I am a better rider than I give myself credit for sometimes.

Beautiful ride home otherwise. I am going to get some knobbies soon and ride in the snow often...I really like it.
